These crystals usually form in and around the joints, possibly because the temperature in these areas is slightly lower than the rest of the body. If they get into the space between joints, the crystals can cause painful inflammation (redness and swelling). What can increase your risk? After it is fused, the big toe does not move except at the end (interphalangeal) joint. This should significantly improve the painful symptoms. The toe is positioned for optimal function.

Uric acid is created when the body breaks down purines. Eating foods that contain a high level of purines can increase your risk of gout. Sesamoiditis is an inflammatory foot condition that affects the two tiny bones under the big toe joint. Most people do not have any side effects after a hydrocortisone injection. Side effects are less likely if only one part of the body is injected. Gout is caused by having too much uric acid in your blood. This can lead to crystals forming around your joints, which causes pain. Activities that cause you to put pressure on your feet for extended periods, such as ballet, soccer, and football, can make ingrown toenails more likely.Weight.

During the 2-6 weeks following surgery, use of the post-operative shoe should be continual and walking activity should be minimal.

Your child's doctor will monitor their height and weight carefully for as long as they're having treatment with hydrocortisone. This will help them spot any slowing down of your child's growth and change their treatment if needed. Wearing shoes with a deep toe box will prevent irritation of the skin overlying the bone lump over the toe. Avoid thin-soled flexible shoes and wear a low-heeled shoe with a firm stiff sole. This is likely to help because if your shoe does not bend this will help protect/limit painful movement of your big toe.
