Suggest Remedy For Pain And Bleeding Due To Injury

Hello - I picked at a splinter. became infected, used peroxide. this hole bleeds undontrolably for a few minutes until I put pressure on and band aid. but band aid keeps it moist. not healing. looks like I have a bright red pimento in there. when I keep uncovered, dry, it raises up out of the hole... god this is gross. Hurts, bleeds all of the time.

Hi.
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC.

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it seems that due to injury there has been deeper injuries along with loss of tissue and bleeding is due to unhealed areas and infection..
I would suggest you to consult a General surgeon and get evaluated and he can advise you a course of antibiotics like Ciprofloxacin, anti-inflammatory painkillers like Ibuprofen..
Injectable antibiotics and steroids can also be given for faster healing..
Dressing can be done daily or every alternate day for initiating healing and reducing infection..
A tetanus toxoid injection can also be advised..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
Dr.Honey Nandwani Arora.
