| it has been 3 weeks since my accident and booster shot. I cut the tip of the skin of my left index finger off with a case cutter. Now, the finger is rigid at the top near the cut, which is only a half and inch in size or smaller, as well as numb while it heals. The capillaries are making the rigid area red at the top of the finger due to the healing process, but this numbness is hard to deal with when the finger get itchy from wearing a gauze bandage part of the day. Most of the day I have to leave it exposed with hydrocortisone to stop the itch. I also use antibiotic ointment directly on the cut to fight infection. Has this ever happened to anyone else? Thanks. |
