Is there any good method for paronychia?
Paronychia, also known as onychomycosis, is a purulent infection of tissues around nails caused by minor local injury. At first, one side of the nail or the root of the nail is red, swollen and painful, and then it gradually festers and accumulates under the nail to form an abscess under the nail. After it is broken, it often becomes chronic inflammation because of poor discharge of pus. This paper introduces several prescriptions of external treatment of traditional Chinese medicine.

L Green tea, black sesame and refined salt 1 g each, mixed with a little physiological saline, and mashed into mud. After routine skin disinfection, apply the medicine to paronychia, change the medicine 1 time every day, and continue to use the medicine for 2~ 4 times. Do not touch the affected area with water during application.

2. Coptidis Rhizoma and Radix et Rhizoma Rhei are equally divided, washed, dried and ground for later use. When used, it is mixed with vinegar (diluted if used by children), externally applied to the affected area, and replaced after daily cleaning.

3. 50 grams of fresh cactus, after deburring, mash it into paste, add 2 grams of salt and 6-8 drops of safflower oil, mix well and put it in a container for use that day. During treatment, apply appropriate amount of the above ointment to the affected part and wrap it with gauze. Change medicine every morning and evening 1 time, 4 days is 1 course of treatment.

4. Wash the fresh verbena properly, mash it with a little salt, apply it to the affected area, and change the dressing every day 1 time. Generally, symptoms will be relieved in L-3 days, and it will be fine in 5 days. Verbena can clear away heat and toxic materials, reduce swelling, dissipate blood stasis and expel pus, inhibit a variety of bacteria, and is rich in medicinal resources.

5. Take ebony, wrap it in a wet towel, take out the core from the meat after wetting, apply it to the affected area with the inner side of ebony meat and fix it, and change the dressing every morning and evening 1 time. Most of them can be cured within 1-3 days. If it has become pus, you can use anti-inflammatory drugs first, and then use it after the pus is discharged.

Comparison of treatment methods for paronychia

Iodine daubing and soaking

As long as the toes are slightly damaged or broken, wipe or soak the affected toes with iodine, 4-6 times a day, each time15-20 minutes, until the skin turns white, and use the disinfection effect of iodine to corrode the diseased skin tissue and make it grow again to prevent paronychia.

Traditional Chinese medicine application

External application of traditional Chinese medicine is a kind of conservative treatment, which has the functions of detumescence, analgesia and detoxification, and is suitable for early patients with paronychia. General hospitals apply fish fat ointment or Sanhuang powder to the affected area. Zhang Yingchun, Deputy Chief Physician of Chinese Medicine Department of Hubei Maternal and Child Health Hospital, prepared "Quyu Ointment", which has obvious curative effect on newly suppurated toes. A course of "Quyu Ointment" is about 90 yuan, and eating hair is prohibited at the same time.

nail pulling

In fact, nail pulling can't cure paronychia, especially paronychia caused by ingrown toenails, because the two sides of toenails curl and grow into the meat, and when walking, the soft tissue on the edge of toenails will be cut, forming "ingrown toenails" and finally causing paronychia. Nail removal can only remove the deck, but has no effect on nail groove and nail bed. The newly grown nail plate will continue to grow into the meat, and it is also nail ingrowth, pain and paronychia. There have been records of patients pulling out their nails four or five times a year.

Nail groove plasty

The nail groove plasty by Professor Wu Lianlian from the Department of Plastic Surgery, Zhongnan Hospital of Wuda University has fundamentally solved the problem of deck curl growth. The specific method is to make a vertical zigzag incision from the nail root of the patient to the nail groove through the nail edge, and cut off the deck and nail bed near the nail groove together with the inflammatory granulation tissue, and shape a brand-new nail groove together with the soft tissue outside the nail groove to make the deck straight. Nail groove plastic surgery only needs outpatient surgery.
