    TMI wound warning… a bit of pus with black bits of debris came out of my finger. Hopefully that means it has managed to expel any remaining bits and there is nothing else in there and my finger can heal properly now.

        I don’t think there is any dead flesh, the problem is way too much living flesh, all of it involved in a fight for ownershiop over my finger. The white blood cells have home ground advantage, but the interloper bacteria have lots of sneaky tactics to use, and it’s only the pitch invasion by the antibiotic team that’s keeping the advantage for the home team.

      Magnoplasm is good for pulling all of that out and letting the fresh white blood cells get in there. It’s meant for splinters and whitlows but I often use it for infected cuts with or without antibiotic treatment
