Can Neosporin Heal Squished Finger?
Hello my name is Miriam, and i squished my middle finger while go-karting last Monday. Only one side of my nail got purple and now that side is starting to fall off. Nothing is wrong with the other side, it s firm. is there anything i could do to heal it like neosporin? Or do i need it removed? Thank-you!!!
