So I'm heading to Germany on Wednesday next week and my toe has been infected for over a month now. About 5 weeks to be exact. I've gone to the doctor and he couldn't see much wrong with it. It isn't really red but my entire meaty portion of my toe is swollen and when I went to the foot doctor she got some yellow/white pus from the skin where the nail grows out of.
My toe end is sticking out more than before. That sometimes hurts if I walk but not often. And the edges(especially where the nail grows out of) hurts if pressure is applied to it. Actually that part is redder now and it's sore.
I've tried antibiotics for a week, Neosporin, and the foot doctor got the pus out and gave me healing ointment to apply for 3 days and none of that worked...PLEASE someone help! I've tried soaking it in warm water too..And I've been planning this trip for a year. The foot doctor said she didn't want to remove my toenail if I am traveling..but I have another appointment with her on Monday since it is booked until then. Are there any ways I could possible get rid of this infection? ;w;
