The pad on the bottom on my foot below my big toe is swollen and looks reddish purple and it hurts to walk on it or touch it. came up out of no where?

Below the Big: Toe there are 2 small rounded bones and if you wear a lot of high heels the can get irritated, other considerations are capsulitis, bunion shoe irritation. Consult local podiatrist for diagnosis and treatment.
