Suggest Treatment For Redness And Clear Liquid From Cut On Toe
Cut my toe a few weeks ago. It was getting better and a few days ago someone stepped on it. Now it is really red and the skin is coming of and a clear liquid is coming out. The middle of my foot is starting to hurt as well. I haves noticed a red line starting to go up to my ankle. Very swollen and painful.

Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having severe infection in toe due to new step injury.
This brought local infection spreading in veins giving rise to thrombophlebitis near ankle.
Go for one antibiotic, anti-inflammatory meidicine course for 5 days.
Clean the local part with antiseptic lotion and dress it with antibiotic cream.
Ok and take care.
