Talk to experienced dermatologist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
Hello there..I can understand your concern. from your description and the picture it looks like you could be suffering from acute paronychia. at present you will need oral antibiotics and anti inflammatory to reduce infection and swelling. if the paronychia is due to ingrowing nail, then you will need to get your nail removed. so kindly consult a dermatologist or general surgeon for further evaluation and management.
