Suggest Oral Medications For Redness Around The Cuticle Of The Toes
I have developed a redness around the cuticle of my big toe. It is painful and seems to be moving to the area below the cuticle into the skin. I don t think there is an injury there. I have been applying topical antibiotic and just started taking an oral antibiotic as part of therapy for a recent tooth procedure. What else should I be doing and will the oral mecine also help heal this? this is very unusual for me as I don t get infections.

Hi,
It seems that there might ne having nail be infection giving rise this problem.
But as you are already on antibiotic medicine, you might not require any more medicine for heaing.
Take ibuprofen medicine if pain is there.
Apply antibiotic cream after proper cleaning.
Ok and take care.
