Suggest Treatment For Sore Red Thumbnail Infection

I think I have an infection under my thumbnail. I've probably had it for almost a week (started at a beach) but it's been getting worse the past few days. It started out a bit red and now it has become a white dot surrounded by black (under the edge of my nail). It's sore to touch, but sometimes it throbs on its own. Should I just keep soaking it or go see a doctor?
