I've had an accident recently and now I've got these wounds on both of my hands. The one on my right hand is healing, but the other one is starting to look infected and has some pus. I'm already on some painkillers, but I'm really not sure what I should be eating to help reduce the pus and speed up the healing. Could you give me some advice on diet or anything else that might help?
