Hi, 3 weeks ago mindee who is 2 came with a slightly sore finger near the nail. She had been ill in bed that weekend and her partner was looking after mindee so unsure how he done it. Now on the wed my son started school and was only there for an hour so me and mindee went to sainsburys cafe. I decided to talk to pharmacist to see if mag sulphate would help. I wouldn't of done this with anyother mindees but i know the mum well (we use to go to college and work together) I have been a pharmacy assistant as well so just wanted to check. As i thought mag sulphate was recommended and told mum. she was fine and got some.
Well last week he came and it still hadn't improved and looked worse. I asked if she wanted mw to pop him to pharmacist again. she agreed and was told he needed antibiotics cream and syrup. Well Mum got her sister to take him as appointment was at 10.20 and only cream was given. Mum works quite far away and is a manager and had no cover so that is why aunty took him.
Well this week its still no better. the cuticle is getting further back down the nail. My friend who is a nurse saw it and said it should of improved by now and to return. Well Mum has texted me to say she will take him tom evening. Is aid to let me know what time she will pick up. She said she might take him to A & E. Now sorry he should see a dr not wait ages in A& E after he has been with me propably 10hours! I can't believe she is doing that. I guess it is so she doesnt loose her wage or have too much time off as she is now preganant so needs time off for midwife ect.
soryy bit of a rant but she has really suprised me. Before she has kept him off for a cold now this has been like this for 3 weeks. it was left untreated for 2.
