My little toe has swollen up for no apparant reason. I don't remember banging it or wearing too-tight shoes today, so why has it swollne up so bad? It's throbbing and red and bigger than the little toe on my other foot. I took some painkillers and put some ice on it, which has helped slightly, but i'm worried why on earth it has done this. ????

Okay, don't worry Honey. Sometimes, when you are asleep, your feet might fall off the bed a little, hit a table, a toy on the floor, maybe even the end of the bed. It's okay, so, don't worry. But, if its not well in a week, just go to the doctor. Just don't put pressure on your toe and put some Neosporin on it. Let it air out, no band-aid. You shouldn't where a too-tight sock or shoe at all until it gets well. You should never wear anything that hurts you. You can even soak it in a warm bath, or ice it with ice in a baggy. Good luck!!

Perhaps you got an insect or spider bite?
