    Default Stiff big toe

    So my right big toe sometimes becomes very stiff & seems like it has a life of it's own & when it becomes stiff, it hurts like hell. I dunno how to explain it. You know the feeling when your leg falls asleep? It's kinda like that but just my right big toe & then it starts to pull itself away from my other toes. It feels & looks like something is pulling at it & it lasts for a few seconds. I didn't mind it at first because it only happened like twice a year but it's becoming frequent now. I tried googling it but nothing really useful came out & I'm not sure how to word it in google haha! Have any clues?

    Go talk to a doctor, it's really the smartest thing you could do when you are having medical problems.
    Don't you ever sleep?
    Not at night...that's when the stars have rather better things to do. They're coming out, shining, that sort of thing.

    I got no insurance I'm saving up to meet with a foot doctor but until then, I'm very curious what it might be

    It sounds like a foot cramp. It happens to me during pilates. You might need to add more potassium (bananas or supplement) to your diet.

    i get this all the time when on the pole....i think it's cramp, often brought on by lack of potassium, dehydration and tiredness.

    or so ive been told.

    try eating lots of banana's, tons more water and see if that helps.

    let me know.
