Sesamoiditis is a painful condition that affects the sesamoid bones when they become injured or inflamed. These bones are small, pea-shaped bones located within certain tendons in the body, most commonly in the feet. The most common one irritated is under the big toe. This is often from repetitive stress on the feet, such as running or dancing. These stretches and exercises should help relieve the pain.
