Pain and swelling around toe nail
My 2nd toe is swollen and at night, was paining a lot around the area surrounding the nail. Took crocin and applied soframycin then only I could sleep a bit. There was a mild pain since last three days but last night the swelling came and the pain shot up. I don't remember getting any injury or insect bite.
