Wound due to Nail Cut

2020-12-21 05:58:58
Hello, My thumb nail got chipped off yesterday. It was a small nail and it correctly got cut at the line where I generally cut the nail using a nail cutter. But when it got cut, my skin got cut too and it is slightly bleeding. The bleeding stopped immediately but there is redness and it hurts. What should I do. Is there an ointment that I can use? Will Neosporin work? Should I put a bandaid

Try to keep your finger dry, you can apply soframycin ointment....I suppose bandaid is not required. Only try to keep that finger dry.
