What Causes Red, Hot And Swollen Spot On The Toe?

I had a small spot (looked like a little pimple) on my toe yesterday morning. Walked a lot yesterday, then it started to feel really sore. Took my shoe off and its was very swollen,red and hot. Tried to put a pin in it but no fluids released. Still looks the same now the following morning. Any ideas?

Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern looking to the history given here this could be shoe bite and in my opinion take care for this particularly for infection do not disturb this as you did earlier keep the area clean, for the inflammation you can take the "Tab Ibuprofen 400 mg three times in day, with the proper care this would come around, take care and have a nice day.
