It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests, including x-ray of the affected area to look for a possible fracture. It would be prudent to see a doctor. Wish you good health!

You may want to get an X-ray to determine if you may have fractured the toes. I recommend lamb's wool or soft cotton and buddy tape with Cobane.
