Cut near baby finger nail
Hi. While trimming the nails of my new born baby, there is a small cut which happened on his thumb. A small drop (1 or 2) of blood came and quickly stopped. The baby's 6th week vaccine is still pending (due from 28th Mar) due to external COVID situation. Should we get 6th week vaccine immediately? Or should we get TT done? Is it safe to take him out in these conditions?
Also can we use any ointment or powder on that area?
