See a physician: Many things can cause swelling in your toe. I would recommend seeing a podiatrist for an evaluation. Podiatrists specialize in foot and ankle care.

Depends on the cause: Some causes of swelling of the toes can include systemic problems such as hypertension, gout, and problems with the kidneys and localized issues such as arthritis, infection, lymphatic obstruction, blood clots, varicose veins, trauma (fracture, sprain, and tendonitis) and side effects to medication. Have it evaluated by a professional and get the appropriate treatment.
