What Is The Remedy For The Skin Peeling With Yellow Tinged Fluid Coming Out?

My two year old just got her thumb stuck in the wheel of our pram. It has taken all the skin off down one side. It didn't bleed but a watery yellow tinged fluid has been coming out of it since about two minutes after it happened. She is freaked out & wont let me near it. Any advice?

Hi..it could just be a mild abrasion and the serum is oozing out. Pus canot form like this so fast. Wash it with clean water and soap and apply an anti-septic ointment as first -aid.

If it is swelling or redness is increasing or has high fever or blackish discoloration of the finger and you approach the nearest medical center.
