A member asked:

I rubbed the skin on my little toe raw, doing a 5k walk. it hurts, and feels like it is burning. how do i stop the pain, and heal the skin?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Skin wound: Keep the area clean and apply antibiotic ointment. Tylenol, (acetaminophen) Ibuprofen or Naproxen will help with pain. The skin will heal quickly as long as you're generally healthy and no infection is not present in the wound. If no improvement within 1 week, see you primary care provider.
