My big toe hurts
 

Help me.

Turf toe sucks (as does a sprained toe, especially the big one)

Let me suck the pain away

Ask Mahomes

Bob Marley died of toe cancer.

I feel like it needs to pop, but won't.

Gots da gout

I'll believe it when I see it.

Soak it in cider..

I bet you stubbed it on something. Do you remember a thunk and searing pain when you passed a piece of furniture recently?

That shit runs in my family, although (knock on wood) the cruel gods of aging haven't yet added it to my dance card. My maternal grandmother had it bad, as did both of my uncles.

Ironically, one of my uncles contracted neuropathy in the same toe that had had the gout. So even though it looked awful and should have been horrendously painful, he couldn't feel a thing and it didn't bother him at all. The only instance I've ever heard of where two nasty maladies combined to cancel each other out.

I mean this in the nicest way possible, hopefully it's terminal.

Doesn’t matter your age with gout my man. I’ve had it since I was 28 years old. If your kidneys can’t process purines, you’ll get the gout. It’s definitely miserable, but the medication really lets you do live like normal.

Well, that's a lucky break, I guess. Maybe not so much when the toe gets gangrene, but lucky in the interim.

I was not aware of that. Thought it was an old person thing. My relatives were all older when they came down with it.

He died from Alzheimer's a couple of years ago. The toe never got him.

I'll point out that a toe injury against the Chiefs ended Jack Lambert's career, so take it seriously. You can't anchor against offensive linemen if you have a bad toe.

Have you tried killing yourself?

100% guaranteed to end any and all pain...

Long way from your heart.

Rub some dirt on it.

Be a man, don't rub it. That's what chicks do.

All things my high school basketball coach used to tell me.

I broke one of mine several years ago. Kicked a concrete support beam in my basement during a storm blackout. Hurt like a mofo for about a month.

Dis guy git’s a prize

Quit jerking off so much.

I started getting gout at age 19. It’s been tolerable and it’s been deathly crippling. Get on meds, your doc will probably tell you rest, elevation, and most importantly, get as many bee jays as possible. (On a side note, steroid shots are a miracle cure).

If it's an arthritic problem you could try Aleve (generic Naproxen). I have a big toe with a minor bunion problem that will eventually require surgery. My Podiatrist told me to double up on Naproxen. Works for me after a day or two.

You know, you don't REALLY need a big toe.

Have you tried not sticking it in your ass so frequently?

I’m not diagnosed (I don’t go to the doctor for anything)… but I’ve had textbook gout flare ups in my right big toe since my early 20’s. They progressively are getting worse and stay for longer. I recently discovered bio freeze on Amazon which helps get me sleep through the night and hobble around during flare ups.

Here let me fix that for you:

Gout

Take Allupurinol.

However, when you gots da gout, usually, it's so painful you can't walk on it. I crawled around the house for a couple of days.

You may have passed out, outside with it sticking out of A hole in your sock. A snake may have thought it was a mouse and tried swallowing it. Or maybe not.

Don't think it's gout.

Why don’t you think it’s gout? Is it on the outer joint at the base of the big toe, red, warm, tender. If so, it’s gout. Colchicine, taken as a bolus dose, the first sign of symptoms knocks it out quickly. Allopurinol is preventative but won’t do a thing once you’ve got it.

I have gout and the frequent need to pop my toe joints.

Try frequent flexing exercises to keep the joints flexible. Also, OTC joint supplements (tart cherry) can help.

Do you have more pain when getting around or sitting/sleeping?

Inner joint. Not red, warm, or tender at all.

Getting around. No pain just sitting or sleeping

Who needs WebMD when you have Chiefs Plant MD aka CPMD

p.s. Warren Oates rules.

WebMD says you probably have 48 different types of cancer. And space herpes.

Have had mine surgical rebuilt.

All they do is a blood test, you’ll have high uric acid and they’ll prescribe you febuxostat or allopurinol. You’ll never suffer again, if you forget to take it and suddenly have a flare up take mitigare or colcrys.

I would hate to have that pain, just because I wouldn’t go to the doctor. Maybe I’m a bitch and my pain tolerance is low, but gout ****ing sucks.

Just injected some antifreeze into it. Will report back with results.

Sounds like Haglunds, just take it day to day

Hit up the fermented hot sauce thread. Should help.

These two feet should date. :eek:

I had gout in the ankle....and one time in the knee. I drank cherry juice and found it helps.

Same here (toe/ankle). Usually it's in the big toe, but after a large shrimp boil, my whole ankle completely locks up.

If I manage to get my steel-toed boot on, it immobilizes my foot enough that I can go to work.

But, otherwise, it's a sick day of hobbling around the house or staying in bed.

Can't drink beer anymore, but whiskey (somehow, thank God) doesn't aggravate it.

I woke up yesterday with severe big toe pain. No trauma to it, no nothing. Just woke up to pain. No swelling, slight redness to the entire foot with the veins popping. Just pain and the inability to walk without more severe pain.

Sucks.

Textbook gout. Sorry brother.

Just like that. That sucks, man. I can't get 20 feet, limping and walking on my heel, before I have to sit down due to the pain. I got a ****ing concert to go to tonight.

Sorry to hear that. Mine isn't nearly that painful. I think I may have just strained mine somehow.

Some serious irony considering the nature of this thread. I think TLO put a hex on you.

I don't guess I have to tell you to go to the doctor and deal with this ASAP. Good luck.

Update.

My toe no longer hurts.

Thank you.

Samsies.

I’ve been going through a gout attack since the 22nd, today is the first day off crutches. I’m able to limp around. Sorry for my gross feet pic, but feel free to sell on OnlyFans.

Shit dude!! My toe/foot never changed colors that bad !!! Jesus, please tell us you’re pranking us. ****! Are you sure that’s not ready to fall off? Christ!!! I’ll pray for you or something.

It was by far the worst attack I’ve had. It’s definitely not a prank, my veins were wild as well. The pic doesn’t do justice at all. Been eating ibuprofen and colchicine as a side dish ever since.

You got to be careful what you stick those things into!

Holy shit. That’s a bad one.

What caused it?

My knee or ankle sometimes hurts when I drink but it’s gone within 24 hours. I’ll limp around a bit though.

I’ve been off my medication for 2 years, I recently lost a ton of weight and haven’t had any issues. On the 18th I bbq’d a tri-tip and literally ate 3/4 of the damn thing. I didn’t think anything of it, but I learned the hard way.

Just get some blood work done and see if your uric acid is high. I’m pretty sure take a lot of protein and consume a lot of protein, so it’s very possible you’re getting mild attacks.

Yup. Weight gain/loss can be a major contributor of an attack. Of course meat as well (especially that much). Man, take it easy. Rest and Elavation. You don’t need to have blood work done to see your Uric levels.

How do you see your levels without blood work? It’s been elevated everyday, I’m on the couch all day, only get up to pee. I’m drinking water non stop.

**** man...amputate that thing. :eek::eek:

That left heel looks swollen as hell too.

I can't tell which foot is more ****ed up looking. It's like looking at a couple of potato's. One looks like a German Butterball potato and the other like a Japanese Sweet.

The entire foot was a balloon. Currently elevating it in bed as I browse the interwebs.
