Turf Toe

sportsmd.com — “Turf toe is one of the more common injuries treated by sports medicine professionals. Turf toe is actually a sprain of the joint just below the big toe otherwise known as the first metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint. The injuries to the joint can include damage to the ligaments as well as the joint capsule. The end result is pain with both extension and flexion of the big toe which translates into pain anytime the athlete tries to walk, jog, jump, or run.” View full resource at sportsmd.com
