I cut my pinky toe slightly when cutting my toenails. It looked as if it got infected a couple of days later. I then went to the doctor and she prescribed an antibiotic called ciprofloxacin. She tried to release the swelling that was causing me pain, by pricking the toe with a needle and squeezing the toe. But no puss would and little blood came out. I hurt it a little over a week ago and it is still hurting, a little swollen and somewhat blue. Not sure what to do next - other than return back to the doctor. I was told that if I hadn't had blood work done recently (which I had) that I should have myself checked for diabetes.
