Hi,

About 4-5 weeks ago I slammed my middle finger in the front door to my house. It was really swollen and bruised. I could not write with it or move it. Now the swelling has gone down, and I can write with it and move it again.

Last night the finger nail fell off. I have been keeping it bandaged with a band aid. I also put hydrogen peroxide on my finger. I am going to get some antibacterial ointment for it tomorrow.

Is there anything else I can do to keep it from getting infected? Or worse from getting nail fungus?

Thanks.
