Hi,Thanks for your query. After going through your query I came to know that you got inflammation and pain in your left finger following needle prick. For pain relief you can take analgesic such as ibuprofen. Vitamin B and C are helpful in recovering.If you have severe pain and fever then probability of infection is there and antibiotics can be taken to control it. You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it. I do hope that you have found something helpful. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care.
