Explanation:

Wash the area with clean water 2 times a day. Don't use hydrogen peroxide or alcohol, which can slow healing.

You may cover the area with a thin layer of petroleum jelly, such as Vaseline, and a non-stick bandage.

Apply more petroleum jelly and replace the bandage as needed.

If your doctor prescribed antibiotics, take them as directed. Do not stop taking them just because you feel better. You need to take the full course of antibiotics.

Take an over-the-counter pain medicine, such as acetaminophen (Tylenol), ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), or naproxen (Aleve). Read and follow all instructions on the label.

Do not take two or more pain medicines at the same time unless the doctor told you to. Many pain medicines have acetaminophen, which is Tylenol. Too much acetaminophen (Tylenol) can be harmful.

Prop up the toe or finger so that it is higher than the level of your heart. This will help with pain and swelling.

Apply heat. Put a warm water bottle, heating pad set on low, or warm cloth on your finger or toe. Do not go to sleep with a heating pad on your skin.

Soak the area in warm water twice a day for 15 minutes each time. After soaking, dry the area well and apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly, such as Vaseline. Put on a new bandage.

When should you call for help?

Call your doctor or nurse call line now or seek immediate medical care if:

You have signs of new or worsening infection, such as:

Increased pain, swelling, warmth, or redness.

Red streaks leading from the infected skin.

Pus draining from the area.

A fever.
