Sore finger

[reallytinyamy]

The tip of one of Chloe's fingers is very red and looks very sore. It looks like she has 2 tiny paper cuts on it- god knows how. I'm just worried as she keeps putting her fingers in her mouth etc. It doesnt seem to be bothering her but it is extremely red. I was thinking salt water, what do you all reckon?

I'm not sure. I'd probably call my pediatrician, but than again I call my pediatrician on most things

Jack has this on his thumb too - was just going to put sudocrem on it?

I don't know if I'd put that on Hannah as her fingers are always in her mouth

thats what I thought. how do I keep it clean? I'll just keep washing it I think. it looks a bit better now

I think that with her putting it her mouth it may heal better ? putting cream wont help unless you put mittens on her but she might eat those too lol

I think I'd keep up what you are doing and just wash it often.

Was going to put a thin layer on, but to be honest I didn't think of it going in his mouth (stupid mummy!!!) - thanks!!!- I didn't put anything on & it healed by itself

^^as above, Chloes has healed just fine. I just made sure it was clean every time I changed her nappy

Glad they both healed
