Hi,
Probably you have Bunnioette, swelling at the joint of the little toe.
The only remedy, if swelling is persistent and sizable is surgery but if only pain is there, then use shoes with wide toe box.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Gopal Goel,
