why does my big toe hurt

I'm only 11 but ever since I went to a lake the right side of my big toe has been hurting. Where my nail touches the right side of my toe there's something yellow, and I don't know if its fungus or not.
Please help.

It could be an ingrown toenail, sometimes when that happens you can have yellow or white stuff coming out from where the nail pierces the skin. It can be very painful until you trim your nail. Check with your mom and have her take a look at it, either she can try to fix it or maybe get her to take you to the doctors to have a look.
