If the redness increases and it starts to swell around the finger, it is a sign of infection. At this time, it should be dipped in boiling hot water.

If there is a large infection and pus has formed, it is necessary to go to the hospital and have a small operation to drain the pus. Antibiotics are also used against infections. The doctor should advise which medicine to use depending on the wound and the condition of the body.
Bandage the wound in a hospital setting until it is completely healed.
If you have a wound or surgery, be aware that using various medicines and dressing the wound in a dirty environment can make the disease worse.
