Suggest Treatment For Bump On Toe

On the top of my second toe on my right foot, a bump has developed. It grows in size until I prick it with a pin and a clear sticky fluid oozes out. It keeps coming back, even after I squeeze all of the fluid out. Now it is starting to hurt, but it is not infected. Sometimes a little blood oozes out with the clear liquid.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

Best is get it removed by a surgeon, it appears as some cyst (dermoid/sebaceous) so better get it operated. If it is left like that then chance of complication increases like infection/change into cancer,etc.

Thanks
