Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

I have gone through the details. It would help me better if you can upload some photos of the finger. If it is a burn then I would suggest you apply ointment which contains Sulfadiazine Topical - 1% and Chlorhexidine Gluconate Topical - 0.2% ( SILVEREX).

I hope this answered your query.

Regards,
