POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 7 m old boy11 months agoA. It sounds like your child may have a fungal or bacterial nail infection that has caused the skin around the nail to peel. Here’s what you can do: 1. Stop using Mupi (Mupirocin) cream Mupirocin is an antibiotic ointment and is not effective against fungal infections. If it hasn’t improved the condition in two weeks, a different treatment may be required. 2. Identify the condition Fungal infection: The nail may appear discolored (yellow, green, or white), thickened, or brittle. Bacterial infection: The skin around the nail might be red, swollen, or oozing pus. 3. Steps to manage the condition: Consult a doctor: Visit a pediatrician or dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis and get a prescription for antifungal cream (like clotrimazole or terbinafine) or antibiotics if necessary. Keep the area clean and dry: Wash the affected area gently with soap and water, and dry thoroughly. Avoid nail trauma: Trim the nails carefully, but do not cut them too short. 4. When to see a doctor urgently If the area is swollen, red, or has pus. If your child is in pain or the condition is worsening. If there is fever or the infection is spreading. Do not delay treatment as untreated nail infections can spread and become more severe.
