It is never good to agitate any wound, infected or not, therefore, I would avoid doing this. However, if it is wet, or has pus, a gentle squeeze might encourage it all to come out.
If you have a toe infection you should talk to your doctor...
An infection known as osteomyelitis can eat away at the bone of the dog. It can be contracted through the toe or any other part of the body. This occurs when the infection enters through an open wound.
A green toe could be a sign of an infection, such as a fungal infection or an injury that has become infected. It is important to see a doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment to address the underlying cause.
Broken toes are usually very minor injuries and there are usually very few complications. If you break your toe and leave it untreated, it usually cannot cause infection throughout your entire body. However, open or compound toe fractures have the potential to cause infection because there is a break in the skin and the bone is exposed. Open toe fractures must be treated to prevent infection and can only be treated by a physician using antibiotics and surgery. If you have an open toe fracture or are worried about the possibility of infection, you need to see a physician as soon as possible.
It is not recommended to use Vaseline on an infected toe. Vaseline is not an antibacterial agent and may not help with the infection. It's best to seek medical attention for proper treatment of the infection.
Toe skin is called the epidermis, which is the outer layer of skin that covers the toes. This layer helps protect the toes from injury and infection.
There are many ways to draw out an infection, from a bite wound. A person can squeeze the infected area, and push it out, they can use peroxide, or rubbing alcohol.
Firstly, you should see your GP/family doctor, who (given your medical history) should prescribe you oral antibiotics to combat the infection. They may also give you a peroxide solution to soak the toe in, until the infection has cleared.In the meantime, make sure there is no bits of toenail actively digging into your toe, exacerbating the infection. Gently file any rough edges of the nail which may be digging into your toe. Also, keep soaking the toe in saline water (500ml warm water, as hot as you can tolerate, with 2 tsp salt) as frequently as you can. This should aid healing.

0.o...never. You might wanna check to see if that is a gangrene infection. But it could just be a bruise from stubbing your toe. See a doctor ASAP.
Erythematous of the toe refers to redness and inflammation in the skin of the toe. This could be due to various reasons such as infection, injury, insect bites, or underlying medical conditions like arthritis or gout. It is important to have it checked by a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment.
