Hello.
Thanks for choosing HealthcareMagic forum.
You have injured your toe badly may be with a crushed phalanx. The coming out of fluid on pressure indicates that there is some infection inside. You need to have an X-ray of your toe along with proper dressing after drainage of the fluid. Antibiotics and inj. tetanus are also needed.
