Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i cut my finger a few hours ago I don t know the seriousness of it but it looks kind of deep.. I was wondering if there are any signs of an infection this early on.. should I use peroxide to clean and use a band aid for when I go to sleep.. thank you so much in advance...
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, no need to use the peroxide in this case instead this can be managed with "Povidone iodine ointment" on precaution basis, keep the area clean, take care for hygiene, and no need to worry about this, have a nice day.
