Suggest Medication For Pain,swelling And Itching In Middle Toe
Someone stepped on my sandal and some how I got a tiny cut right below my middle toe ... This happend in Vegas and it was poring rain and I stepped In a deep puddle of water... it didn t hurt at the time but now a couple days later it started to swell like an inch to two inches around the cut... It was hurting bad yesterday and today it hurts but it also feels itchy... Not sure if I can have a fracture... I m afraid of getting hepatitis or some other disease from walking in those nasty streets... Should I be worried???or am I just being paranoid?

Hi thanks for using HCM
it's TRAUMA superadded by INFECTION
it is simple one, why you are worrying
Hepatitis is infected by feco oral route. So relaxed. I would like to suggest
Cap cephalexin 500 mg 2 times daily for 5 for days
tab acetaminophen and paracetamol 2 times daily.
Mupirocin cream on wound area after cleansing . Thank you.
