My little finger on my left hand started with a small red raised spot over the first joint at the nail bed which now has enlarged and caused the whole little finger to swell, has fever and continual pain an tender to touch. Seen by a nurse practitioner, the area was opened expecting a boil, however,NO pus was found, but it bleed profusely. I am now taking antibiotic, pain meds and still is is not subsiding.
