You could have something called extensor tendinitis which is an inflammation of the muscle tendons that run along the top of the foot and attach to the big toe.
You can test to see if you have extensor tendonitis by flexing your foot downwards, and then have someone put pressure on them as you try to pull your toes upward/ If you feel pain upon the top of the foot it's most likely extensor tendonitis.
