What Could Be The Reason For Having Tingling On My Finger After Removing The Stitches?
I had a deep cut on my finger that required a few stiches. The stiches were removed after 1 week. Now, after 2 weeks, my finger is tingling, throbbing and feels very hot. During the night it actually fell asleep and was very uncomfortable. There is not obvious infection and I am keeping it bandaged with triple antibiotic. Is this normal in the healing process?.
