Swelling around finger nail
My mother has a reddish swelling around her right hand thumbnail. it was only a little before but now since a month or so it has increased and her nail has also grown very weirdly since that.
I think it has also spread to her index finger lately because when I saw it today, it too had a little swelling which looked the same.
She has been doing warm compression to it twice a day and applying a gel called Silverex, under the advice of my aunt who used to be a doctor.
