Q: i have a red bump on my big toe and it hurts what could it be from?

: I assume there has been no injury. You don't mention how long the bump has been present. It could be an irritated chronic bunion,skin or nail infection. Apply hot compresses intermittently,, wear noncompressing shoes and white cotton socks. See a physician or a podiatrist if not improving.
