Dear Sir, I Have Been Pricked On The Head By

Dear Sir,

I have been pricked on the head by a Bougainvillea thorn at the end of August and there is pain, swelling, pus. I have applied Ichthammol for the past 5 days , very little discharge, if any. Has been painful at times. It should be healing but it doesn't seem to be any better. Can you recommend a treatment please.

Thank you,

Bob Higgs
