Actually, it sounds like you have an ingrown nail. See if you can push the skin back a bit to see whether the nail is growing sideways. If it is, you'll have to hack it out of there or it will just keep getting worse as it grows into the skin. It hurts like a mofo, but it's the only way to fix it (I had to perform this op on a big toe once...not fun).

It must be doing it further down in the nail, because I can't see anything growing weird in there.
I just snipped the tip of the puss area, and I got out a bunch of highlighter/neon green thick as sh!t puss out of it. It still hurts, but now the pressure-feeling has gone down and there's a tiny empty pocket next to my nail.
:disgust:
