Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Hello, it's not possible. In the early stage of paronychia, heat application, physical therapy, topical application of ichthammol ointment or Sanhuang powder, and sulfonamide drugs or antibiotics can be used. If there is pus, a longitudinal incision can be made at the nail fold for drainage. When the infection has spread to the subcutaneous tissue around the base of the finger, longitudinal incisions can be made on both sides of the nail fold, the epithelial flap at the base of the nail can be lifted, the nail root can be removed, and a small piece of petroleum jelly gauze or a latex sheet can be used for drainage.
