Paronychia

 
  Today we had Elijah's finger looked at.  He has paronychia, so it is infected.  There hasn't been any drainage or pus so they just prescribed him an antibiotic that he will take orally for 7 days and they wrapped it up in a splint.  Of course the wrap didn't last long.  He just used it as something new to chew on.  They said if the redness starts going down his finger or gets red streaks down his arm to take him downtown so they can give him antibiotics through iv.
