My Grandma was Cleaning her Finger Nails, She Removed Skin from the roots, Help? She's In Pain?

She was cleaning her finger nails, when she removed some skin from the roots (from under the nail), about a month ago, and it really hurts her, and there doesn't seem as a medicine that can help her out of the pain, the place where she removed the skin is now black, and the finger nail, kinda got into the skin.. Help?


BTW. She's 78 Years.My Grandma was Cleaning her Finger Nails, She Removed Skin from the roots, Help? She's In Pain?
B/c of her age and the way you describe the skin as black, you need to take her to the doctor right away.


Her circulation in her fingers is not like that of a 30 year olds..its diminished.


Please take her to the doctor before the infections spreads.. this is dangerous.


P.s. give her some Motrin if it does not disrupt any of her other meds and call her regular doctorMy Grandma was Cleaning her Finger Nails, She Removed Skin from the roots, Help? She's In Pain?
After a MONTH! Take her to see a doctor.





If no doctor is available... Make a mild solution of warm water and old Fashioned Lysol ... about a tablespoon to a cup. Soak the finger in the solution.
Maybe she should go to the doctor. The black part is probably dried blood. It may be infected (since it happened a month ago), and might be harboring bacteria. Get it checked out by a doc.
go to a doctor and see if they can pull up the nail and then give some pain medication but it is most likely that the nail will fall off and regrow that wat happened to friend =0 b better
What has the doctor said to put on it? Neosporin?? Keep it clean as possible for sure...the part about it turning black doens't sound very nice at all. I'd contact her Dr. or a dermatologist to ask what to do.
Take her to the DR.!!! Could be an infection or an ingrown nail which could both turn out very bad even deadly (not likely but could)
Take her to the doctor. The black skin sounds like it's gone necrotic, and she should be seen by a doctor.
its even difficult for us here in Y!A to solve ur problem. I suggest u to consult any doctor becoz her skin may possibly be infected by bacteria..
maybe she should go see a doctor about it. I'm sure they can give her some medicine to help it.
