Part of my big nail broke off on Saturday night after spending two days cutting the cuticle and causing a blister. Where the blister was, there is now a cut. It's only a small one but it bloomin' hurts. ? I'm a very slow healer (steriods, I presume?) so have been keeping it clean and covered. Today there is a considerable (for the size of the cut) amount of green gunge on the dressing. Does this automatically mean infection? I've tried googling but it keeps bringing up sinus mucus ?) and alike.
Going to the docs is such an exhausting activity that I'd rather not go if I can avoid it. I'm wary as last time I had a toenail problem, I ended up on antibiotics but it seems like a sledgehammer to crack a nut scenario if it will be a quick passing phase. ?
