Welcome to the EmpowHER community and thank you for seeking our advice regarding the onset of serious pain in your toes and pain to the touch on the top of your foot.
Onset of pain in the toes and top of the foot are of concern and must be reported to your orthopedic surgeon.
For the benefit of all of our readers, the tibia and fibula have specific parts that make up the ankle. These include the medial malleolus, which is inside part of the tibia, the posterior malleolus, which is the back part of the tibia, and the lateral malleolus , which is the end of the fibula.
Trimalleolar fractures means that all three malleoli of the ankle are broken. These are unstable injuries and they can be associated with a dislocation.
Once you consult with your orthopedic surgeon, please update us on the cause of the pain.
