Hello. I had an infected ingrown toenail surgically removed at a podiatrist a little under one month ago. Now, the area is clearly infected with yellow pus, a lot of swelling, clear oozing, redness and purpleness, a lot of pain with any pressure or walking. In the office, the doctor applied Neosporin, which I am allergic to, which he then realized and quickly removed. I have been rinsing the toe with warm water in the shower most nights and following with bacitracin and a bandaid on a limited basis. I won't be able to see a doctor for about one week. Will this be okay? (Also I take minocycline for acne but it doesn't seem to have any effect). What is the risk of the infection spreading or bone infection if I've had this infection for approx. 25 days?
Thanks so much in advance!!
M
