You should see a doctor and not do this yourself. You don’t want to end up with a nerve injury. You can see a foot doctor to take care of this for you. Best of luck to you!

I do not think you are seeing a nerve. In any case you are too deep into subcutaneous tissue And what you have is just that. Subcutaneous tissue. Please see a podiatrist or your family doctor for care to prevent a major infection
