Turf toe is a sprain of the big toe joint. It usually happens when the big toe bends too far upward, often during sports or quick movements.
Signs & Symptoms

Pain at the base of the big toe
-
Swelling or bruising

Treatment
Most cases improve with rest, ice, and supportive shoes. More serious injuries may need physical therapy or other treatments.
Why it matters: If left untreated, turf toe can cause long-term pain or joint problems.
