What should I do if my baby's left index finger is swollen and red?

Patient's question:

What could be the reason for the entire little finger of your baby's left hand being red and swollen? It was fine when you woke up this morning, but when you came back from work in the afternoon, you found that the entire little finger of your baby's left hand was bright red and swollen. There were no signs of insect bites, and there was no sign of anything being bumped or knocked. You are very confused, what should you 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 partner should take "Vitamin E." If it is not too severe, it is best to pay attention to hand hygiene. Do not cut 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 daily and avoid eating spicy and irritating foods.
