My toe has been seeping blood and pus for two weeks now?

Question

I broke my toe with a dumbell and it cracked the bottom of the nail. Its infected now.help!! doctor gave me antibiotics but they are c**p.

Answer 1

Go back to your GP, if they cant help, A&E will be able to (although it's a bit of a strain on resources!)

Answer 2

Sometimes antibiotics don't work initially because of different bacterial sensitivity. You need to go back to Dr.

Answer 3

Smear Neosporin on it and wrap it in gauze. Then, apply a heavier bandage. If that doesn't work stick it with a needle and drain the pus. But only after steralizing it first.

Answer 4

Go back to your doc if he will not help then go and see another doc at the practice. If you live in the UK you can always go to your local walk in centre (if there is one in your area) or go to casualty.
