Suggest Remedy For Swollen & Painfull Toe
Hello i am a 35 year old female with no major medical problems. I have asthma but only use my inhaler as needed maybe once or wice every 6months to a year. I got an ant bite on Monday, and my whole toe has been swollen and painful since then and today is Friday. Should I visit a doctors office?

Hello,
Your symptoms are suggestive of a local infection or inflammation. For this reason, I would recommend consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam. In the meantime, I recommend using locally an antibiotic ointment.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
