I am 66 years old recently I went through a surgery to replant my 3 fingers in left hand as it was cut in an accident. It's been 20 days now we found there is an infection while doing dressing. Is the infection curable?

I am sorry to hear about your concern, but will be happy to assist you. For stitches that are mildly infected or only involve the skin's outer layer, a person can treat the infection using prescription antibiotic cream. If the infection has spread deeper below the stitches, a doctor will likely prescribe oral antibiotics let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
