What Causes A Painful Bump Between Toes Which Looks Purple?
Hi, I have a purple bump between my toes that itched earlier but now hurts really bad. I thought it was probably poison ivy because I have poison ivy on my chest, but this is only one bump and is dark. It is a little shiny. I do not think It is a bug bite because I don t see any little bite marks.
