Question
The baby’s left little finger is completely red and swollen, with no signs of insect bites or injuries. It was fine this morning, but by the afternoon, it turned out like this. What should I do?
Answer
Based on the symptoms, it’s likely caused by a fungal infection. It’s recommended to use medication while ensuring the area remains dry and to take Vitamin E. If the condition is not severe, maintain hand hygiene and avoid cutting the nails too deeply. In severe cases, it’s advisable to seek medical treatment, and also pay attention to rest daily, avoiding spicy foods.
