Give small pinch and take out all puss and then apply polyfax

Pediatrician in Dera Ghazi Khan - Dr. Muhammad Sher Khoh Qaisrani

This is called Paronychia (a nail bed infection). This needs to be drained with a sterile needle, and oral and topical antibiotics are given. Give Syp. Augmentin (156mg) - 1/2 teaspoon three times daily for 5 days and Syp. Calpol (120mg) - 1 teaspoon three times daily for pain. Apply Polyfax eye ointment (pink) over the lesion three times daily. Insha Allah will get better.
