Question:

Pink stuff around scab!?

hey i fell about a week ago and i had pus then i scrubbed it and all but the skin around the scab id pink and it looks like a target sign so is it infected?


Answers:

That is inflammation around the wound .... it is definitly a sign of a minor infection...probably staph... if you clean it with an antiseptic and bandage it bacitracin or Neosporin..the redness should go away fairly quickly
