get a sharp pain in my left big toe when I put weight on my foot.

by Dereck Miller
(Fort Washington, Maryland, Prince Georges)

When I stand and put weight on my left foot, I get a sharp pain in the big toe along with my 2 middle toes, the pain is bad enough to almost make me fall down. I have not suffered any kind of injury to my foot and when I am not putting any kind of pressure on my foot, it does not hurt and is not sore. It is not red or show any signs of an injury. It actually feels like the bone is breaking when I stand on it!!

Hi Dereck,
There is always the chance that you suffered a stress fracture of one of the metatarsal bones even though you may not be able to recall any specific instance.
If the pain is a bad as you state, the foot needs to x-rayed and should be examined by a podiatrist.
