में तीन एंटीबायोटिक दवाएँ शामिल हैं: बेसिट्रैसिन, नियोमाइसिन और पॉलिमिक्सिन बी। बेसिट्रैसिन एक बैक्टीरियोस्टैटिक दवा है जो बैक्टीरिया की सेल वॉल के निर्माण को रोककर काम करती है। नियोमाइसिन उन ज़रूरी प्रोटीन्स के निर्माण को रोकता है जिनकी बैक्टीरिया को अपने महत्वपूर्ण कार्यों को करने के लिए आवश्यकता होती है। पॉलिमिक्सिन बी, ग्राम-नेगेटिव बैक्टीरिया की सेल मेम्ब्रेन पर मौजूद फॉस्फोलिपिड्स से जुड़कर बैक्टीरियल मेम्ब्रेन को नष्ट कर देता है। जुड़ने की इस प्रक्रिया के कारण बैक्टीरिया में ज़रूरी मेटाबोलाइट्स का नुकसान हो जाता है। ये सभी मिलकर के रूप में त्वचा के बैक्टीरियल इन्फेक्शन का इलाज करते हैं।

Health Queries

I have pus in my finger with pain and swelling. What could be causing this infection, and what treatment may help it heal safely?

Vikas Singh

Vikas Singh

M Pharmacy

Pus in the finger with pain and swelling usually happens because bacteria enter the skin through a small cut, nail biting, hangnail, injury, or repeated friction. The infection may collect around the nail or deeper inside the finger, causing redness, warmth, throbbing pain, and difficulty touching or bending the area. In some people, the swelling becomes tight because pus gets trapped under the skin. Treatment depends on how deep the infection is and whether pus is still collecting. Warm water soaks may help improve drainage and reduce discomfort in milder cases. Doctors may use antibiotics, antiseptic cleaning, pain-relieving medicines, or drainage if the pus pocket becomes larger or very painful. Keeping the finger clean, dry, and protected from further injury usually helps healing. Do not repeatedly squeeze the pus or puncture the skin at home, as this can spread the infection deeper into the finger. Fever, spreading redness, severe swelling, numbness, or inability to move the finger properly should be checked quickly because deeper hand infections may worsen rapidly.

I had my second ear lobe pierced two weeks ago; there was no pus, redness, or swelling at the piercing site, but there is discomfort, swelling, and redness above the piercing site. Could you help tell me how to fix this?

Even in the absence of pus, irritation, earring pressure, or an early skin infection, mild pain, swelling, and redness can occur following an ear piercing. Avoid touching the region frequently, keep it dry and clean, and use warm or saline water to gently clean it. Avoid switching out your jewellery too quickly and avoid wearing tight or hefty earrings. You should contact a doctor if the swelling, redness, warmth, fever, or discomfort worsens, or if pus appears, as you might require treatment for an infection or inflammation.
