Starting to get swelling
In the month had a fall and got hairline fracture in the knee on the thumb. Got plastered and advised 3 weeks of rest. Got it checked after 3 weeks, removed plaster, got x-ray done, again advised 3 weeks rest with some gel for medication. Now there's some puss formed around the thumb area which when itching is causing allergies on the skin. Any remedy.
