I have what looks to be a hangnail on my thumb. Usually if I have one, it'll go away in a couple days, but this one has been here for about a week, and there's this bubble-like wound thing right beside the upper corner of my nail - and it hurts sooo much worse than a hangnail. And the bubble isn't full of liquid or anything (gross, I know) it's just like really really swollen very tender bloody skin.
I cut the nail so that it doesn't grow into the bubbly thing, and I've been putting neosporin on it every night, and I tried to drain any pus that could have been in it - but I didn't see any.
I have a doc appt on Friday, so yeah I know "Go see a doctor" common response, but I was just wondering if anyone else has ever had this? Or if anyone even knows what I'm talking about.
