My toe feels like there's something wrapped around it :S?

For about a week, my big toe on my right foot has felt like there's something wrapped around it, like cotton or something. At first I thought it was cotton from inside my sock, but no.

It's not numb or painful, just very annoying!!

Has anyone got any advice or am I gonna have to see a doctor (not very keen on that idea tbh!)?

Thanks :) x x

    Is it cold? these feelings can result from lack of circulation. Do you have cold hands/feet? eat some fruits and vegetables and take a multi vitamin, preferably with extra iron. Or drink tap water if it's safe in your city.

    I have been feeling like there is a rubber band or string wrapped around my baby toe for a week now and it goes numb, little pain, no swollen or coloration but very annoying. I have read other people who have had this and some say its your shoes you wear that can cause this, the cold weather, another went to a pediatrist and said it is called Morton's Neuroma. Not sure but it is soo annoying, i am going to try and wear different shoes from now on and see if that helps.

    Hemorrhoids, also known as piles are swollen veins around the anal opening or the anal canal. They can be painful and linger on for a long time causing distress. Fortunately, there are a number of home remedies that are as effective and provides fast relief https://tr.im/VM1MU

    The main symptoms include bleeding during the bowel movement and itching. The first thing that people do to cure hemorrhoids is get an OTC medication, without knowing their possible side effects.

    I have it, it's called raynaud's syndrome/phenomenon

    it feels like a peice of string or thread is tied around the toe or toes or fingers.

    atleast i think it's raynaud's syndrome, or something simular. i've never got it diognosed.

    Poor circulation ? Go to the doctor and get it checked it could be the start of something.

    I was not satisfied with the answers. Is there a medical diagnosis?
