Patient's question:
What could be the reason for the entire pinky finger of the baby's left hand being red and swollen? This morning, everything was fine, but when I came back from work in the afternoon, I noticed that the baby's left pinky finger was completely red and swollen. There were no signs of insect bites, and there was no sign of anything being bumped or knocked. I'm very confused and don't know what to do.Doctor's answer:
From the symptoms, it is caused by a fungal infection. When taking medication, it is recommended to pay attention to local dryness during the treatment process. The collaborator took "Vitamin E." If it is not too serious, it is best to pay attention to hand hygiene and trim the baby's nails too short with separate nail clippers. If the condition is severe, it is best to seek medical treatment. We should pay more attention to rest every day and avoid eating spicy and irritating foods.
