Pain and swelling in the fingertip?

23-year-old woman2 years ago
Hello, Since this morning, I have a pain at the end of the finger of the right nail. The place is slightly swollen, a little hot and quite painful when pressing. I haven't applied any care or medication for the moment. What can I do to cure this?

Hello ma'am, is this a result of something or a cut? Would you be able to upload some well-lit images?

Thanks for the feedback! Sorry for the delay I didn't see the notification!
At first, just keep the area clean with water and mild soap. Ice can be applied for 10 to 15 minutes to help with pain and swelling. However, if these symptoms increase or persist for more than 3 to 5 days without improvement, a doctor should be consulted as a precaution.
Sincerely,
Tom Samaha, pharmacist
