Probably ok: Yes, will most likely be ok. Apply an antibiotic cream and apply bandaid until the cut closes. If toe starts to hurt, swells, turns red or notice any drainage from the cut go see your podiatrist for a check up.

I suspect I fractured my small toe 5 years ago, I feel pain when I walk barefoot on the bone underneath the toe and this causes me to shift my weight onto the other side of my foot. Problem is not as bad when I wear tackies or shoes ?

I got a splinter or something in my foot about 4 months ago, and it's been a little painful to walk barefoot during that time. It also hurts with any pressure applied to the small area, and it is a small visible bump/lump right there, slightly brown color
