What is up with my toe?!

Woke up this morning, went to parkrun and did 3 miles with no problems/pain. Noticed big toe was sore around toenail when I was showering after.

Toe proceeded to be really, really painful and a bit swollen for around 8 hours, but has since settled down considerably and now only really hurts a bit if I bend it. Can anyone explain this?!

I have fungal toenail infections I've been treating for months - the affected toe is a bit yellow on the painful side, if that is relevant. White stuff in the image on the right side is germolene.

Advice would be appreciated as I am a bit bemused by going from zero to "OMG I may need hospital" to zero again in the course of 12 hours 😂

I would go to local pharmacy and ask for advice as you have to be careful with foot injuries / infections.
