Turf Toe
Annoying strain under right big toe. I must have bent my big toe back too far a year or 2 ago, and the pain comes back if I tread on something that bends my toe more than normal.
10/10/11 Consulted Podiatrist Ben Moore from Melbourne Sports Medicine in Collins St. He seems to think it is nothing too serious and should settle down with some relief from pressure.
I now have new foam supports in my inner sole to relieve the pressure from my big toe. I've also been told to ice every day. If it helps I will get more foam inserts in my other shoes too.
The podiatrist recommended Adidas Adizero XT 3 Shoes http://www.wiggle.co.uk/adidas-adizero-xt-3-shoes/ for running on rough surfaces but with some cushioning/protection.
