Suggest Home Remedy For Cuts And Swelling On Toes

My toes felt like they had paper cuts on them. It only hurt when I walked on them. I usually wear open toes shoes or heels so my feet never sweat. I did wear tennis shoes today but the pain started before that. Now my toes itch and look like they may even be swollen a bit. What could it be? Any home remedy?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,

Itchy, swollen and painful toes may suggest a fungal infection of the foot. I will suggest that you get this foot examined for possible infection and management. Treatment is often done using antifungal creams. also, watch the feet at least twice a day to relief itching and help control a possible infection. Unless pains is severe,, I will not recommend a pain medication at this time.

i hope this helps. I wish you well.
