thank you for naming the term, i have suspected that might be the case but didnt actually look at my foot. and yes the bone is noticeably larger on my right foot compared to my left and that's the one causing the pain. naturally in that state even during normal times.

would appreciate if anyone knows what brand/shoes that is softer in material or has a wider/bigger area on the toe knuckle/bone area so that it wont cause me pain and agony.

Traffic police boots offer very little protection.
I bought one online because I needed a boot on short order as my china boot needs 2 weeks to arrive.
