“My toe bump?”
I have a bump on my left toe right before my pinky toe. It started out as a blister on my first day of school which was November 16th. I didn't do anything but it hurt. Now it has dead skin on it and is hard. It still hurts and part of the skin fell off and it started bleeding.

Blister and beginning of corn, get wider shoes.
Please seek the help of a local podiatry office.
It could be a wart or a corn. You should see a podiatrist and have it treated.
Hello!
Without a physical examination, it is hard to say what it is or what it could be. But, from your description, it sounds like you may have a hammertoe deformity that has caused the "knuckle" to rub against the underside of your shoe causing soft corn to develop, which has subsequently hardened and developed into what we call heloma durum. Please see a
podiatrist who can actually make an appropriate diagnosis after a physical examination and possibly an X-ray.
All the best.

There are a number of possible diagnoses and without a picture it would be difficult to give you accurate info. See a podiatrist!
It’s probably a corn. See a foot doctor for treatment
Probably a “corn” from right shoes.
This sounds like it may be a wart this is something that should be looked at
You have developed a callus over the toe. You should see a physician to have the area looked at and treated. You need to stay away from tight and pointy-toed shoes.
I recommend you discuss with your parents and have them schedule an appointment with a foot and ankle surgeon (podiatrist) for diagnosis and treatment options
It is best to have a professional look at it.

Typically when you get a blister or callus formation on the outside of the fifth toe is commonly related to either hammertoe deformity or a small area of bone that creates a prominence/pressure area that combined with your shoe gear you get either the blister or the callus. Using soft fabric toe boxes or shoes that have a higher toe boxed can help. I would avoid any type of medicated padding however using something like a silicon toe tube can help or even some people prefer a Band-Aid if there is shoes do not have enough room to allow for padding. Ultimately this can be fixed surgically if it continues to not improve with padding and shoe changes.
