Infected wound
Hi,
I have a wound on my second toe finger (adjacent to the big toe) and it's been there for almost 3 weeks. For the past few days, the wound has started to excrete out puss all the time, and there is redness around the wound as well. I have attached a picture I took this morning. Also, recently, I visited a village. I don't know how or when I got the wound because it never hurt until quite recently. Also, anytime outdoors, it used to attract houseflies. Kindly help.
