Infection?: Possibilities include infection, inflammation, arthritis, insect bite etc. Go see your dr for a thorough evaluation. You may need to take antibiotics, and xray etc. Try some over the counter tylenol (acetaminophen) or advil if you have no allergies or you are not on blood thinners (warfarin). Take care friend!
