Hello,

You should visit ER, get a Tetvac injection stat, get the wound examined & let it be cleaned & antiseptic dressing is done.

You may need either an antibiotic injection or oral antibiotics depending upon the severity of the burn/trauma. Keep your wound protected from flies so that it does not get infected.

If you are diabetic keep your sugar under control for better healing. Keep your leg elevated to stop inflammation & swelling.

In the meantime, you can apply Soframycin ointment for relieve & take Acetaminophen(Tylenol)/ Combiflam, one sos when pain. Take antibiotics under a consultant.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Nupur K, General & Family Physician
