I've had an ingrown toenail for about a month. i'm scheduled for a podiatrist. last night i got a small fever. could this be from the infection in toe?

I DOUBT IT: It would be unusual. You're young; I will assume healthy. And, did you take your temperature, or did you just "feel feverish." And, other things can cause an elevated temperature; a UTI is an example. I'd watch it for now.
