Hi brusing of toe would have been infected.we will see this kind of patients in regular praction.nothing to worry.the infection would have caused swelling of lymph nodes which is the reason for headache.nausea etc.it can be treated with broad spectrum antibiotic twice daily .anti inflammatory agent and application of mupirocin ointment can cure it
