What Is The Treatment For Redness In The Toe?

Hi, I wore a pair of shoes to work some time ago and they rubbed the end of my second toe all day and ever since my toe has not been the same. The end of my toe has a tiny area now that I cannot feel if I touch it and when i take my shoes off the end of my toe is often red and feels hot. It seems to be getting worse than better, is there anything I can do? Thankyou
