  1. Recently I pulled out a hangnail, which resulted in a tiny amount of bleeding. It stopped quickly,
    and I gave it no thought until the area began to swell, throb, and turn red. It also formed an area
    of tissue almost as hard as a fingernail.

    Clearly I have an infection, and it doesn't seem to go away, after four or five days.

    I don't want to go to the doctor with such a small thing, if I can avoid it.

    Any ideas how to get ride of a persistent small infection?

  2. Better go to the doctor.

    If you have some Ampicillin or Amoxicillin take it. That won't get better without an antibiotic.

    Triple AntiBiotic has been a standard for us as it woks well even


    under a BANDAID

    However IF the SORE is STILL persistent it MAY have a STAPH based siutuation inside your >
    BODY. This NOT unusual either.I've run into it with numerous clients. Get a prescription ANTI-
    Botic from your Doctor Or have a SCRAPING analysed so that you'll KNOW what bacterium is
    causing same! B-0b1
