What Causes Itchiness And Pain In The Toe?

I experienced a painful sting followed by intense itching the other day while walking. When I got home I clipped my toe nails because I thought it might have been my nails scratching my other toe. Well the next day I had a painful blister with some fluid coming out of it, I washed it up and put alcohol. It dried up and was fine. The next morning after that it was leaking fluid again and it was itchy... I cleaned it up with alcohol and noticed that it looks like an open sore. Today I put hydrogen peroxide on it and it burned bad. It is still painful to touch. What might this be? A spider bite?

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having some poisonous insect bite while walking and now due to allergic reaction and itching there might be having some infection.
Clean the part and apply triple action cream.
If require go for one oral antibiotic medicine course for 3 days.
Ok and take care.
