My aunt has been dealing with paronychia for the past ten days, and its really worrying because her fingers have become hard. We tried to drain out the pus, and I think weve gotten rid of all of it, but shes now feeling really weak, can't talk well, and has a fever. She lives in a village in North Karnataka. What should we do next? Really concerned!
