Finger problem White fluid inside.
It’s been 6 days when i played with a cactus ,then after 3 days my finger got a little big and itchy but i don’t remember got a splinter or something, after another 2 days it began to get a little bigger and has a fluid inside and i feel pain in it, like torture around my finger. And now im taking Amoxicillin antiBacterial and mefenamic acid to ease the pain. *i did make a hole with Pin sanitized with alcho because i thought it is the splinter coming out cause of red dot appeared but its not it.
hello ...... as per the history u gave, seems like u have got an infection, probably an abscess in ur finger. The fluid collection will not come out by the pin hole, however we dont recommend u to try something like that without medical help. The antibiotic u are taking might be of a lower capacity.
Next Steps
so i would recommend u to visit the nearby doctor soon and get it checked. It might require a higher regimen of antibiotic and may be an incision and drainage.

In the mean while u can send a pic through this portal , in case for further clarification.
