How to treat fingernail gingivitis? Three treatments for paronychia

Paronychia is a relatively serious disease. After the disease occurs, the patient will experience obvious pain in the nail groove. If it is more serious, it may even affect the normal function of the fingers, causing many inconveniences to the patient's daily life. There are three main methods for treating paronychia, namely: drug therapy, vital therapy and surgical treatment. Below we will give you a detailed analysis of these three treatments for paronychia!

1. Drug treatment

Except for the free edge, the other three sides of the nail are connected to the skin folds, and the connecting part forms a groove, which is called the nail groove. Paronychia is an infection that occurs in the nail groove. A subungual abscess is an infection between the nail and the nail bed. The two can be transformed into each other or exist at the same time.

Oral antibiotics can treat paronychia. Recently, there are many types of antibiotics, including intramuscular injection, intravenous medication, and oral medication. Antibiotics have a strong inhibitory effect on bacteria and have a certain anti-inflammatory effect. However, it seems to have no effect on ingrown toenails caused by physical toenail penetration. In addition, the side effects of antibiotics are relatively large, so it is not recommended for patients to use them for a long time clinically.

2. Chinese medicine treatment

Jingye Bencao Paronychia Powder is the first-line medicine for the treatment of paronychia in traditional Chinese medicine. It uses a series of Chinese herbal ingredients that have the effects of promoting blood circulation and draining pus, detoxifying and treating sores to treat paronychia. It targets the external evil heat and toxins that are the source of the disease, and can achieve the effects of clearing away heat and purging fire, and quickly relieving pain, thereby quickly curing the stubborn disease of paronychia. When using, just mix the medicine evenly with honey, apply the medicine to the red and swollen area about 0.5 cm, and bandage it with gauze. It is simple to operate and easy to use, and has long been well received by patients and friends.

3. Surgery

In late-stage paronychia with pus accumulation, incision and drainage can be performed. Incision and drainage are used to treat paronychia. Patients who choose this method for treatment should pay attention to the rational selection of antibiotics according to their condition before surgery. Patients with severe hand infections or general weakness should pay attention to improving their overall condition and enhancing their body's resistance. Surgical treatment of paronychia can relieve the patient's pain in a short period of time, but postoperative wound care is more important. If not properly cared for, it will easily become infected and even lead to recurrence.
