Now, however, there has developed a hard knot between the toes and Below the skin. He says it doesn t hurt unless he pushes on it firmly but I need to know if its cause for concern.

Hello,
The hard knot after an injury can be related to the inflammation due to the injury. I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Tylenol in case of pain. I also suggest using cold compresses for local application. The knot will relieve gradually.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
