I dutifully went to the doctor's this morning to get the dressing on my infected pointer changed and was actually quite eager to see the process as the pain had gone and I was quite sure all will be well.
However, when the dressing was cut opened, I saw to my dismay that my finger was still very much swollen. I asked the doctor why is it so difficult for the healing to take place in spite of the antibiotics and all the cleaning done. Previously, my wounds healed without any intervention at all.
He replied that it's partly due to my pregnancy, all my germ fighting antibodies have been re routed my womb, for the benefit of my unborn child, that's why my body is finding it more difficult to heal itself.
In addition, the doctor said I must go in to get my dressing changed every single day, as opposed to every 2 days as he's not very happy about my lack of progress. HELP!
