A member asked:

Dropped vase 3 weeks ago, glass shard cut top part of right toe very deep. now red, inflamed slightly, gets warm and sometimes needling. used antibiotic?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Foreign body: If it is still red, two possibilies are that there may be glass in the toe or that the infection is from a bacteria such as MRSA which may require a different antibiotic to resolve the infection.
