Answer:

Alexandra is experiencing <u>acute </u>pain.

Explanation:

Acute pain is a type of pain that is generally related to the damaged of soft tissue such as the one on Alexandra's big toe, in other words, the skin and muscles of her big toe. Acute pain is sharp and severe, but it goes away in a short time, which can vary from some minutes to some months.
