The big toe shows symptoms of swelling and pain. There are many reasons for this symptom. It is necessary to consider gout disease. Pain and trauma can be caused by nail growth to the flesh. For the patient, a big toe examination can be done. If it is caused by nail growth to the flesh, the patient needs to trim the big toe nail. The patient's swelling and pain symptoms can be improved. Blood uric acid needs to be checked. If uric acid is elevated, it is caused by gout. Patients need to take medication to reduce uric acid.
