Welcome to our community. I am sorry you are hurting. I wonder of your shoes are getting wore out. That can cause painful areas on your feet and toes.

I wonder if this area is the start of a callous? Callouses do hurt and can begin looking like a blister. It would be my guess that whatever this area of pain is that it is due to pressure on the site.

Have you tried changing to a wider shoe? This may help along with a pad to protect the area. You might also try soaking your feet daily in Epsom Salts. If this area does not respond to anything you try I would see your doc for further evaluation.

Others will post with different suggestions and ideas. Best of luck to you. Take Care, Tuck

Sorry Zaky, guess I'm not fully awake yet. The other thing this could be and probably more likey is a corn. They too can start out looking like a blister. Corns are very painful. There are "corn pads" you can obtain from your local pharmacy to place over the area.

Some times your pharmacist can advise on this too. Please take care and keep in touch. Good luck, Tuck

My Grandmother always said to bind unwrought cotton to the corn for a week and it will dislodge and heal it. Now I have never tried this as I have never had a corn but its worth a try.
