Joint flare up (hackertalks.com)
submitted 4 days ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Not sure if it's related, years ago I had a toe issue. Got some orthotics and started keto and it's been resolved, haven't really thought about it for a few years.

Yesterday it came back, and I'm trying to figure out what the trigger was

I have two theories:

  1. on Friday I had a bunch of pistachios. Something in the nuts may be encouraging inflammation. Maybe oxalates

  2. I've lost 45kg since I got these sandals so they are very loose and I find myself flicking up my toes while I walk so they dont fly off

Other than last Friday, I've been pure carnivore for a long time. Just a weird situation. I don't plan on repeating the experiment

What are your experiences?

I guess I'm posting alot this weekend because its the weekend, and my toe hurts, so i'm kinda stuck around the house today.

You probably want shoes that fit better

My foot problems have been

Gout - universally caused by sugar (pain and swelling in the ball of the foot)

Ill-fitting shoes - pain in the second and third toe from too long toenails, causing the foot to be compressed
