Brief Answer:
Please post clear and focused photos in good light.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your feedback.
Since there is a history of falling of a pot on the same toe, this is most probably a hematoma that you might have noticed recently.
Please post few more fresh photos in good light showing clear and focused spot.
