I had a cut about 3/4 of an inch on my big toe a little over a month and it has not yet healed. The bleeding was very
minimal. The skin over the cut is red and around it is a bit yellowish. There is a lot of pussing and what may be a little
bit of blood. The affected area has now spread from the rim of where the nail starts to grow to the middle of the toe where
it bends. The affected area feels itchy and burns. It also looks like blisters (about 3 small ones) are forming under the
affected area.I have been cleaning it with water and mild soap and using neosporine twice a day and covering it when I go out
and letting it "breath" when I am at home. I have already consulted with 2 doctors (2 weeks ago.)One says that it
looks like a virus and prescribed me acyclovir 400 mg. The other says it doesn't look infected and that I should just
continue cleaning it. Did not prescribe or recommend me taking any medications. What should I do?
