I’m not sure this is the right section to ask this question but…I have intermittent pain on the end of my big toe that feels like it is on fire (that’s the best way to describe it but the pain isn’t that severe). Does that sound like the initial stage of peripheral neuropathy?

Hi Rita @ritabtripp, It sounds similar to the pain I had with an episode of gout quite a few years ago. It started in my big toe on the right foot and gradually got to where it was difficult to walk. I was diagnosed with gout and given Colchicine which did the trick for me.

" Big toe pain is often the result of injury or minor underlying medical conditions. Arthritis, fractures, and gout may all cause big toe pain. Most cases of big toe pain are easily treatable with over-the-counter (OTC) remedies. However, some causes, such as sesamoiditis, may require more in-depth clinical treatment."
