Treatment of panaritium with folk remedies and methods

Panaritium is a purulent inflammation of the fingers or toes.

Symptoms: The panaritium is characterized by a pulsating, twitching pain that can be so severe that it deprives the

of sleep and rest. Suppuration is accompanied by a tumor at the site of the focus. The skin is tense and glossy, and the tip of the finger takes a characteristic bulbous appearance. Often, panaritium flows with a rise in body temperature, chills, headache and a sense of "frustration."

What's going on? The reason for the occurrence of a panaritium is usually minor damage: needle injections and minor scratches, light burns that go unnoticed. Subcutaneous panaritium is the most common form of inflammatory diseases of the fingers. Bone panaritium occurs, as a rule, as a result of the transition of suppuration to the periosteum and to the bone.

Depending on the location of suppuration, there are surface( skin) and deep( subcutaneous, tendon, articular, bony) panaritium. More often, there is a panaritium of the okolonogtevoy roller, which is usually after a manicure and( or) pedicure. No less frequent is inflammation at the edge of the nail, which usually arises from small cracks and burrs( okolonogevoy panaritium), and subungual panaritium( inflammation of the tissues under the fingernail as a result of splinters or an injection of fish bone).If you do not take urgent measures, suppuration spreads from the surface into the depths of the tissues.

Possible complications of panaritium are lymphadenitis and lymphangitis, thrombophlebitis, phlegmon and sepsis.

What should I do? Treatment is performed under the supervision of a doctor, possibly surgical intervention.
