How Can Swelling And Discoloration After Freezing A Wart Be Managed?
So I had a wart frozen on Wednesday on my finger. I’ve had a blister since then and it takes over about 1/3 of my finger very swollen and it’s red and purple around it what should I do? My hand aldi feels like it’s falling asleep at certain angles.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It is normal for a blister and swelling to appear after cryotherapy. It will take around 7 to 10 days to settle. Meanwhile you can apply a topical steroid and antibiotic like Cortisone cream and Neosporin ointment on the affected areas twice daily.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Asmeet Kaur Sawhney
