Question:
What is wrong with my daughters foot?
Ok I noticed a sore on her little toe,and there is a red streak going across her foo connected to the sore,it is a little swollen but it doesen't seem to hurt her,my mother in-law thinks it may be blood poisioning so what is it??? Do you have any ideas?
Answers:
The red streak is an indication of infection. Is it warm to the touch? That is also another indication of infection.
Try washing it well with soap and water, and then put some peroxide on it. Once that is done bubbling, use some Neosporin. Give it a day. If it doesn't get better, and especially if the streak spreads, take her to the doctor for antibiotics.
