Red, swollen and tender to touch on third toe?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Go See Your Doctor!: Some part of the body that is tender,red and swollen is either infected, injured, metabolically compromised, or some combination of these.So think back, did you stub your toe and also get an abrasion on it then crush grapes in a septic tank all the while forgetting to take your insulin for the last month?Then you're in a world of trouble.More likely, though,is that you have an injury or infection.
