The joint part of my big toe hurts. It makes me limp. Can’t fully raise my right toe, or squeeze fully. It sometimes hurts a bit like it’s broken. I did not hit it anywhere. It started slowly yesterday. And I walked quite a bit yesterday.

No problem on my left foot.

I’m using new shoes after like 6 years. This shoe (winter boot) puts more pressure on my foot. I’m also walking more than usual.

Ps I’m not asking for medical advice :)

I hate to take a break from traveling because all my bad habits come back when I take a break. It happened last month and it was genuinely horrible.

Look up "stress fracture" in toes. When I was younger and did a lot of backpacking in the High Sierras with overweight packs and not great boots, I ended up with stress fractures.
