How Can An Infected Wart Be Treated?

hi! i got a wart frozen on friday at my doctor, and the wart part she froze off is blistering and stuff which i know is normal, but she froze it 2 times on friday to make sure she got the whole wart, but the first time she pretty much just froze my skin, not the wart. So now my skin is purple/red and super swollen and it keeps looking worse. is this normal or should i call my doctor? (the wart is on my thumb)
