Wednesday morning i noticed my 7yo Conure favoring one foot, i found it strange because i rarely see her do that, even when she's sleeping, then she stopped doing it, and started doing again at night, same story yesterday, and same thing today, the toe on the left foot (which is the foot she keeps up during moments of the day) looks orangish, and looked a bit swollen compared to the other foot, but now it looks a bit better
these pics are from today:

I sent the pics to my vet, at first he said it looks normal, just different pigment, when i mentioned she's constantly favoring the other foot, he said to give Prednisolone, im thinking if i should give it already or wait to see if she gets better by her own (since steroids are dangerous) toughts on this? Anyone has seen or had similar problems?
Her behavior seems 100% normal other than randomly lifting the left foot
