Suggest Treatment For Swollen And Painful Finger

My husband had a thorn stuck in his index finger while gardening yesterday we removed the thorn but his finger is very swollen, red and painful. We put Germaline cream on the finger last night but he says it s still throbbing. I think he should see a doctor?
