Viral infection on toe(corn)

Question

Asked for Male, 29 Years

I had a viral infection on toe(similar to corn) and to remove it I had a radiocuttery procedure. it's been more than two weeks now and the wound is healing, however since past one week , the toe hurts sometimes and it is slightly swollen. I was told to do dressing and avoid water for first 7-10 days, which I did but after that I have just applied ointment to avoid bad skin . I have used water after that. the doctor did not recommend anything else and said it should be fine after radiocuttery but why does it hurt and is swollen?
