hurt toe
I jammed my big toe and in so doing caused trauma to the nail.
It bled.
It seemed to have white drainage fluid after the bleeding stopped.
I have been soaking in Epsom Salt, alternating peroxide and using antibiotic cream.
Anything else I can do to prevent infection under the nail?
I coould not get into the Dr.
Thank-you.

The drainage might be from the bleeding that occurred. I do not recommend peroxide for most wounds. Just because it bubbles, doesn’t mean it is effective. Keep it covered and protected until you can get in to see a doctor.
