We’re taking a break from our usual format to talk about “Turf Toe”, an injury suffered by one of our favorite football players, Bart Scott 
of the NY Jets, as well as many of his peers in the NFL and NBA. Scott had played in 119 consecutive games since 2004, yet was off the field recently due to an injury to his big toe. And Scott is in good company. Chargers LaDainian Tomlinson, Darren McFadden of the Oakland Raiders, 49ers Terrell Owens and Pierre Garcon of the Washington Redskins have all suffered the same fate. NBA MVP Derrick Rose of the Bulls was similarly afflicted. Soccer players also experience a high rate of these injuries, which in this arena is often referred to as “soccer toe“.
The term “turf toe” is used for most type of injuries to the big toe, particularly as it relates to athletes. This injury generally occurs in the joint where the toe meets the ball of the foot (the metatarsophalangeal joint) and is the result of an impact that jams the toe bones together. We all know how painful it can be to stub a toe. But this type of assault is worse because it’s high impact, meaning it happens at high speed, like when someone is jumping or running at full force.
Similar to all these areas we’ve been blogging about, (the thumb, wrist, lower back, neck and shoulders) the big toe joint has its own way of being problematic and its own unique way of being resolved. In the case of the toe joint, when it gets jammed it gets stuck. You have these two bones forced very close to each other and they quickly start to swell and calcify, which is the body’s natural response to high impact injury. In my mind, the best thing to do is get the joint moving to avoid calcification and move out that swelling. And what shocked me is that a quick search on the internet revealed that everybody in the business of turf toe treatment advocates immobilizing the joint and taking 2 or 3 weeks off to rest the injury. And that’s completely the wrong approach for resolving a turf toe issue.
I’ve worked with high profile athletes in the NFL and NBA who suffered from turf toe and I was able to quickly mobilize the joint to reduce the compression and relieve the discomfort. And it only makes sense, if a joint can’t move, then it tends to hurt. If you get it to move, then it feels better.
In my experience, turf toe responds very quickly to mobilization treatment. So much so that the joint will work and feel about 80% better with one treatment and rarely take more than two or three for full resolution. Particularly for a high-end athlete. And for me, that’s what’s so unbelievable about the conventional approach.
With most issues, like that of a knee, shoulder or hip, there’s a complexity in resolving it and a complexity in how it got created. With turf toe there’s no mystery. The toe got jammed and it needs to get unjammed. Very few things are as black and white. Every turf toe has an immobile joint, and every turf toe gets mobilized in the same way. And it’s very accessible. You can’t miss it. If you talk about the neck or the shoulder, for example, there are a lot of minute areas that make a big difference. If you move half an inch in one direction on a shoulder you’re in a whole other part of the anatomy. With a toe joint, however, it’s like a thumb joint, but only easier.
I like to resolve turf toes quickly because if your toe hurts, you’re naturally going walk differently to avoid the pain. And this is bound to create other problems. A case in point is Delano Howell, currently with the Buffalo Bills, who I worked with last year as he prepared for the NFL draft. He came into the office walking on the outside edges of both feet so as not to put his weight on the big toes. He had been dealing with the turf toe for quite some time and had developed groin issues because of the compensation. All this, despite being a defensive back with Stanford at the time and receiving what is commonly believed to be the best possible treatment.
We fixed Howell up right away and now we’re ready for Scott. So, if you see Bart, let him know we’re here for him and that we can fix that toe in no time. Of course we’re here for you as well. Make an appointment with Dorfman Kinesiology and your toes will feel better forever.
Need help with my son turf toe
Paul,
If your son is in CA let’s get him in for an appointment. Otherwise, we can Facetime/Skype and I can assist you from a distance.
Take care, Brian
the answer that they gave for turf toe is right on baby. Our family goes to a guy we all lovingly call the witch doctor… why you may ask, would we call a great guy a witch Dr.? Well its because you go to him and he does his kinesiology and you leave fixed 100%of the time. Its truly the damnest thing I have ever expierenced. I dont have to go to a chiro any more for my neck problems. He made a horribly bad sprain on my grandaughters ankle GO AWAY, true that… then, as if that wasnt enough, showed her how to do it for herself if she was at an away game & no doc atound.Im telling you, you need to check it out. It WILL help your sons TT thanks for reading
I am a college soccer player who has a very important game in 2 days. I suffered a jam toe last Saturday and I’ve been treating it since. I got in a boot and did the whole RICE treatment religiously with Ibuprofen.
My toe feels better, swelling is down, I’m off the boot but I’m not confident to play Saturday as much as I want to because of it.
So I want to check with you if you know anything I could do that may speed recovery to where it will be playable. Thank you. I live in Oklahoma by the way.
Man!!!!!! I just want to say a huge thank you to you Brian. You are unbelievable! thank you so much for the advice and directions you gave me for my turf toe. I ended up playing that game and scored and we got the W. I have another game today and my toe feels so much better after doing the things you showed me going forward. I’m so pumped!!!!!. May God bless you sir for spending your time and energy on me without even knowing me.
Brian you are amazing!!!!!!
I am a kicker and punter for my high school team and I recently hyperextended my big toe a few days ago and am suffering the symptoms of turf toe. I’ve been following the RICE steps but still have alot of pain. Do you have any advice to help me to recover as quick as possible? My team is depending on me as I am the only kicker. I live in Florida. Thank you so much for any helpful advice you may have.
Hey I’m an aspiring college athlete and I think I have symptoms of turf toe. I don’t remember jamming my toe at any point but I remember there being a pain when I started to sprint one day at practice on the balls of my feet (big toe). How do I take care of this? Thanks for the great article & your help in advance!
I play college football at a Junior College in California. I’ve been fighting turf toe for about 3 weeks and I really need for it to go away ASAP. This is my last season to prove myself and earn a division 1 scholarship. Please help, I’m actually kind of desperate
My son is a 16 year old soccer player that recently had a run in with another player and is experiencing turf toe and a small muscle tear. He wore a boot for 4 weeks, iced it and started doing some exercises. On the 4th week he was able to hop up on down on his toes 15 times without pain. The doctor cleared him for playing, he trained the next day and then the toe popped again. I have been taping it, icing it and he has been taking advil. I also ordered him a graphite insert for his shoe so he won’t over extend that toe. He has a game on Tuesday, we are scheduled to see the doctor again on Thursday. Your help will be greatly appreciated. His doctor mentioned surgery and that is the last thing we want.
My daughter needs your help. We are in the Carolinas. She has upcoming track meets and she must run in these meets but she is suffering from turf toe and she is in a lot of pain.
I have been dealing with turf toe for 2 years. I wear an orthotic but it still isn’t well. I have just tried to tolerate it but it interferes with excerise. What can I do to get the joint moving freely again?
I have also had turf toe for about 2 years now. I was out on a turf field (one of the few times I played on one) I was warming up on the side. A ball came rolling towards me and I tried to stop it, at the same time I was wrapping my fingers (since Im a goalie). I guess I trapped the ball awkwardly and BAM I ended up on the ground. Next day I couldnt walk, yet since then I have had pain and it seems that it will never go back to normal. Im with ya though ????
Juan,
I can help with you turf toe. No need for you to be in pain for so long. I believe we can get it back to normal.
Would you like to schedule a FaceTime appointment?
Hi, I am a football player (Soccer) that plays in Spain at a high level. I have turf toe in my right foot and its stopping me play the end of the season. If you could email/ skype me and help me out I would appreciate that so much. Crucial time for me and I do not want to be side lined.
I have been dealing with this problem for a while and it has hindered my training enormously. I need help because rest does not seem to be resolving the issue.
I’m a 25 year old wrestler and 8 weeks ago when I pushed off the ball of my foot, I felt a pop in my big toe joint. I move furniture for a living so I have spent the entire recovery process on my feet and carrying sometimes heavy items. My doctor agreed that it was turf toe but I haven’t felt any improvement in the past 2-3 weeks. Any advice would be deeply appreciated, as I haven’t been able to train in the last two months.
Hi! I suffered a turf toe injury over 3 weeks ago, but immediately after the injury unfortunate continued to play and push through it as I didn’t know it was so serious. Only a week after did I go to see a doctor who told me to ice and rest. It is still not better and while I am able to walk, I have missed already 2 important games as I cannot bend the toe backwards without it hurting. Please help! I have another national game this weekend and am desperate to get better.
Could you please provide information on how I can contact you if I am not located in CA. I have a 16 year old football/basketball that has developed symptoms of turf toe and I would like to treat it.
Aloha Brian, my 11 year old son suffered a toe injury this morning during an indoor soccer game, which sidelined him for his championship football game. He described the injury as a “pop” with pain and he was unable to flex his toe up or down. Trusted Google pointed me towards turf toe as the diagnosis. It’s also where I found your website. We live in Hawaii – by chance can we FaceTime? My son was heartbroken and is worried about his future playing the sports he loves. Please, we could really use your help 🙁

for Westpoint and this nagging pain returns during when spring practice starts and runs through the season. Can you help
him get through his senior season, any advice please .
Yes I can help.
Would you like to schedule a FaceTime appointment?
Hi Brian
My wife an I both met with you once in Solana Beach about 10 years ago for back and neck injuries. You were able to give us a good treatment and excellent advice going forward. We live in Santa Cruz.
Our 18 year old son is getting ready to leave for his first year at Chapman university. He plans just to play football and baseball. He is a running back and missed most of his senior year due to a sesamoid fracture that required surgery. The surgeon was able to insert a screw and repair the fracture. Derek (our son) was able to make it back for baseball season.
Recently while practicing he strained the toe again. The surgeon had X-rays and a CT scan done which came back showing everything intact, no fracture and the screw and bones in place.
He has had orthotics made to take pressure off the seas oil area. I guess my questions are (1) do you think you can help get him ready for the season, (2) do you have a football cleat recommendation (3) any suggestions.
Your help would be much appreciated.
I’ve had turf toe for years and nothing seems to work, would you be able to help me before I go back to school? I run track and I don’t want to get my scholarship taken away
Yes I can help you

My son is recovering from a stress fracture. Therapy is going great but each time he tries to run, he has pain in big toe. Jogging is fine. Just the running is affecting his toe. It would be great if you could offer some advice. Is there a charge for you to facetime with us?
I would like to set up a video appointment about my turf toe. I live in NC. What is the best way to do this.
Hello I have been recovering from turf toe for about three weeks now. Swelling has gone down however there is still pain especially playing defensive tackle and getting into my stance. I have my first game this Saturday and was hoping for any tips or advice that would help me with the pain. I am hoping to be able to play. Thank you
I developed a chronic turf toe problem on my right foot a few years ago during college football. This didn’t occur from a single injury but during indoor winter conditioning, lots of jumping, planting, footwork, etc. It has been years and it will still bother me if I flex weight onto the that toe more than hard running, I don’t jump off of that foot usually but things like lunges, sprawling, and push ups force me to turn my foot and bare the weight differntly.
Just a few weeks ago I had an acute turf toe injury while playing football on my other foot (left). I have rested it for a few weeks, at first walking was painful but now is much less painful, but it is still pretty sensitive overall. With this injury there was a lot of swelling, discoloration, and stiffness compared to the right foot problem that was more like a nagging overuse problem.
Sorry for the long story, anyway any advice for either of my big kooky toes? Long term nagging on the right, acute injury on the left. Will my left toe end up like my right? I primarily use my left foot for single leg jumping and pivoting?
My son is a freshman just turned 15 is extremely gifted athlete handy playing some varsity as a freshman. Last Friday he had a chance to run the ball a couple of times once for 21 yards and one score 29 yards for a touchdown just really proud parents. Unfortunately on the first run he hurt his toe and appears to be turf toe we don’t want him to miss much practice so it doesn’t hurt his playing time your advice and knowledge would be most appreciated.

My son has a bad case of Turf Toe and is looking at having to miss the playoffs in football. We are located in Valley Center and would like to set up a possible appointment at you clinic. I left a message at the clinic and I am hoping to get a class back so I can get him in as soon as possible.

Hi, I’ve had turf toe for 4 months now and it doesn’t seem to be getting any better. I suffered the injury playing basketball in some brand new shoes that didn’t feel comfortable and kept laying in it. After the game I went home and after taking a shower my toe started to feel sore. I thought it was the shoes so I rested it for a week and went back and played in different shoes and it got worse since and 4 months later it’s still painful as heck. I live in NC and would love to schedule a Facetime help if possible. Please let me know how to get started with that. Thanks

Been dealing with turf toe for 1.5 years now. The RICE treatment only helps to a point. Tired of running on the outside of my foot. I do wear carbon inserts in my shoes to stabilize the tie joint. I’m considering a cortisone shot. I’m really looking hard for other effective forms of treatment. What are your thoughts?
My son got hurt last football playoff game and is now trying to play basketball but is in a lot of pain with turf toe any suggestions would be great
My son plays football and has been dealing with turf toe for many years. Can you help?
Dorothy,
Thank you for your inquiry. I am sorry to hear about your son’s injury. If you are in CA, considering making an appointment for him at my clinic. I also offer video consultations via FaceTime or Skype, which would allow to me learn the particulars of your son’s case and offer specific advice to how to resolve the issue. I am also preparing a second blog on Turf Toe to be posted at the beginning of February, so keep an eye out for that. It will contain some very useful information…
I was in a wrestling match and after the match my toe was hurting but it wasn’t too bad and I wrestled another match and it was a little worse but still not bad but as the day went on it got stiff and I couldn’t move my toe down but just not raise it past 180 degrees. I woke up the next morning today and my toe is worse although I can still push it down easy but it is very tight around the ball of my big toe. Do I have turf toe?
Ethan,
Thank you for your inquiry. It could be turf toe but I can not offer a diagnosis. If you are in California, consider making an appointment at one of my 3 clinic locations. I also offer video consultations via FaceTime and Skype. Contact me if you would like to get on the schedule. Take care.
Hey Brian, I believe I have turf toe and have had it for over a month! I’m walking on the outside of my foot to avoid the pain but now my groin and hip flexor on my opposite side is killing me! How can I fix this? I live in Arkansas.

I got turf toe over 15 years ago. I was able to continue playing sports after some rehab. I probably compensated and created imbalances throughout my body from walking on the outer foot for many years. I am doing a marathon and have just started up running again and my big toe is in a great deal of pain. I feel like I may need surgery or a shot for this to ever get/feel better. Do you have any advise? Or have you dealt with old turf toe injuries before? Thank you
Jeremy,
Please forgive my delay responding to your post. Yes, we have dealt with all sorts of turf toe injuries, old and new and everything in between. You can contact me at info@briandorfman.com if you would like to schedule a virtual assessment so that I can evaluate your situation and give your advice to your specific case. Brian
I realize this post is a couple years old. Is FaceTime something you can still do? I am a professional dancer and have a show coming up but my great toe joint is inflamed and my foot Dr says it is turf toe. Help?!
Glad we’ve been able to help you with a virtual consultation!
I have a toe injury for 4 years now. I am an avid tennis player and I have suffered thru the pain which has gotten worse. The doctor wants to do surgery which I have put off but now I am desperate for relief of the pain. I am actually begging you for any help you can offer.
Shannon, sorry to hear about your turf toe. Just picking this comment up now, please forgive the long delay. I am available for FaceTime consultation if you are still needing help. You can write to me at info@briandorfman.com to schedule.
I’ve had a turf toe injury that’s lasted for 6 years. I’ve tried prp and prolo injections and all kinds of mobilisation work to no avail. I’d like to set up a virtual appt of possible.
Christopher,
Glad we’ve been able to work together virtually via phone and FaceTime.
Hey , I’m a highschool football player and I caught turf toe yesterday during practice .I thought it was nothing serious but then I read up on it ,and I just want a healthy season with no long term recuperating …. Is there any way I can reach you
Hello,
Brian is available for a FaceTime consultation is you are interested in speaking with him directly about your situation.
If you do want to schedule something, please let me know a few dates and times in the next couple days that you are available. This weekend is good. Also let us know your time zone.
Hello, I was just in urgent care for what I am almost positive is turf toe. Anything else was ruled out with an xray. The practitioner said perhaps gout however I have no family history, eat extremely healthy, am very active (yoga, working out, work on a farm) and am in no way overweight etc. I noticed after stubbing my toe on some things at the farm and then putting excessive weight on it during yoga that it really started to hurt. Working on the farm is my livelihood so I really want to get this sorted out ASAP.
Ruwan,
We can definitely help with your toe. It is excellent news that you have such a healthy lifestyle as that makes healing much easier. If you are in Southern California we can get you set up at the clinic to deal with the turf toe, or else I can schedule you for a FaceTime appointment with Brian Dorfman to address the issue. He has helped many people with these video consultations. Let me know if you would like to get on the schedule.

I experienced a mild case of turf toe that was nagging at me all summer in my left foot. When I put a shoe on, however, I could hardly notice it so I never thought much of it. For the first game of the my season (I am a college running back) I hyperextended the toe joint which aggravated my already existing turf toe. For practice on Monday, I had to remove myself from play because the pain was so bad I was getting a headache (mind you my pain tolerance is pretty high considering that I played an entire football season on a torn ACL). Needless to say, it was extremely painful and I had practically no mobility in my toe. I was losing hope that I would not be able to play in the game the following Saturday and that this injury would be nagging all season long. One of my teammates recommended that I try DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide). I was skeptical that anything would reduce the pain and increase the mobility as quickly as I needed it since resting my toe is not really an option during the season. After 4 days of applying the DMSO to my toe, I can run without a limp and the pain is very much tolerable. I am absolutely amazed at how well the DMSO is working especially when I think about how severe the injury felt. I highly recommend DMSO as an option to get back on the field quickly. Read up on it though since it is technically not FDA approved, although it is used in veterinary settings. Be sure to wash the area well before and after use since DMSO will bring whatever is on the surface of your skin into your bloodstream. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the info Justin. I’ll definitely look into the DMSO.
I experienced a severe fall while playing hockey, while my feet were not the main concern on the initial injury, i suspect my feet did take some form of impact immediately prior to the fall. since the fall I’ve had pain when attempting to put pressure on the ball of my feet. The strange thing is that its happening to both my feet, the right worst than the left. Its been two months since the injury and i’m still unable to run, i’ve done x-rays on my sesamoid which show no signs of fracture. I’m reading articles on turf toe and im starting to think this could be the possible injury
I believe that I have a turf toe injury. I’ve done a lot of research and everything I’ve seen describes the injury as a hyper-extension of the big toe and it’s connective tissue. It occurs when the toe is bent up too far, outside of it’s normal range of motion.
It’s interesting that you describe that the injury is the result of the toe being jammed and your solution is to get the toe “unjammed”.
That’s certainly not how my injury occurred and it’s not how other professionals are describing the injury.
Are you sure you’re giving out accurate information?
Todd, Thanks for your comment. I have worked with 1000s of turf toes and although not ALL of them conform to the norm, the large majority do. My treatment protocol has been highly effective for the patients I have treated – that is the evidence that it works. Medical professionals may have another way of determining success. All the best, Brian
I have been diagnosed with turf toe twice in a month in a half. I take off the recommended two weeks to allow it to rest but then I go back to dance and it happens again. What can I do to avoid this issue because competition season is coming up along with lacrosse season? I’ve tried R.I.C.E and taping it.
Jacquelyn,
Sorry for the delay responding to your comment. Sorry to hear that the turf toe is interfering with your dancing. Would you like to schedule a video consultation to go over the issue and learn my successful protocol for resolving turf toe? RICE often does not work for this type of injury. If so, please contact me at info@briandorfman.com. Take care, Brian
After searching for the answer to my toe problems, it seems that Turf Toe is the closest thing that describes what I’ve been dealing with. My problem, however, comes from lunges, or what I think is caused my lunges. But now it’s causing pain when I am simply walking or when I’m jogging or whatever. It doesn’t hurt while I’m lunging, though, it will hurt afterwards or when I’m not working out. Is there anything I can do (besides stop the lunges) to make it at least feel better? Not sting and hurt so much?
Thanks for your comment Jen. Without knowing more about the problem I can not offer any helpful advice. Would you be interested in scheduling a video consultation? Please email me directly at info@briandorfman.com if you want to set something up.
All the best, Brian

If you want, we can schedule a FaceTime appointment so that I can give you advice on your particular situation. Please email me at info@briandorfman.com if you are interested. Take care, Brian
My daughter is a college soccer player and started to have turf toe in the beginning of last October. The medical staff at her school put her in a walking boot and took her out of soccer from October through January Additionally, a podiatrist gave her a cortisone shot which did not help, and prescribed inserts for her cleats (they do not fit properly in her cleats so she only wears them with her running sneakers). She says that they do not make her foot feel better. After resting her foot she did have some pain relief, but the pain never completely went away. Now she is back into full training and she is having increased amounts of pain and swelling in her first metatarsal and some pain in the arch of that same foot. She has limited mobility in the first metatarsal, and it pops etc when she tries to move it. She is putting stress on the outside of her foot due to the lack of mobility (which is causing issues there as well). She is beyond frustrated and feels that this injury is preventing her from doing what she loves to the degree she is capable. We live across the country from you, but would be interested in a virtual meeting to get some help. Thank you in advance.
I have a chronic case of what seems to fit the description of turf toe, except it did not happen as the result of a jam. It came from (over) stretching by way of curling the toes under. Now it gets re-injured (easily and often) if I stretch it too far forward or backward, and especially if I push with much weight on the big toe. Is this something that can be helped through your method or is the nature of the injury too different?
Michael, Sorry It has taken me this long to respond. Perhaps you are interested in a FaceTime consultation? It is hard for me to really understand you case by what you have written. You can contact my office at info@briandorfman.com to schedule a virtual consultation.
My son has had turf toe pain for 3-4 weeks and we have a playoff game today. He has been limited during this time but plays on a very high level club team and his high school team needs him at his best for the playoffs. Is there any advice or treatment options you can give us that may get him to the point where he can play at the level he used to when not in pain. Thank you
Dan, Thank you for writing to us about your son’s turf toe. For immediate help, go to http://www.briandorfman.com and check out both the video and blog sections with a “Turf Toe” search. You will find information on taping, self-massage and more.
If you would like, we can schedule a video consultation where I can talk to you and your son via FaceTime to learn more about his particular situation and advise on the best steps forward.
I have had turf two for over a year and I’ve all but given up on ever walking or running normally again. I’ve been to two doctors and neither of them were able to diagnose the problem. Is there any hope at all?
I have a 16 year old
Son about to start his lacrosse season dealing with a big toe injury and walking on the outside of his foot saying it doesn’t hurt. What can I do? I live in MA. Anyone here do what u do?
Colleen,Thanks for your inquiry. I can definitely help with you son’s turf toe. Although I don’t know anyone doing this sort of work in MA, I’m available to do a video consultation via FaceTime or Skype to review the case and advise your son on taping, stretching and self massage to resolve the issues.
If you would like to schedule an appointment, please let me know best days and times when both you and your son can be available for a video call – and we’ll figure it out from there. Take Care, Brian
Everyone in our family has used these programs – with amazing results. Injuries and pains that were long-standing – have been dissolved and healed. Brian s teaching is clear. The practices are fun and – best of all – they work.
I’m 49 now I played football for a long time and I still get turf toe doing nothing. what can I do?
