For @Aneta: In this type of inflammation, oral antibiotics are usually not used. Local treatment is usually sufficient. If you have any doubts, here you can use the teleadvice with your doctor: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja
Thank you very much. And why is the use of an oral antibiotic not justified? 😊

In your case, where we are dealing with inflammation at the nail, the use of an oral antibiotic does not seem to be justified. You can read about what to do in this type of situation here: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/opinie-i-pytania/93248/witam-wokol-paznokcia-uzbierala-mi-sie-ropa-uslyszalam-o-metodz For the night, you can lubricate the lesion with ointment with an antibiotic. Without a prescription, you can buy, for example, https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/47243/maxibiotic-masc/apteki https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/79857/tribiotic-masc/apteki If after about 7 days of treatment you do not observe an improvement, please consult a doctor. You may need to use a prescription ointment, e.g. https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/50809/mupirox-masc/apteki If you are unable to consult your doctor, you can use the teleadvice here: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja
