Having been pricked by a Hawthorn tree over three weeks ago and suffered the pain that goes along with it even though I am on antibiotics and piriton, I am now finding that the skin around the infected knuckle has started to peel away in big flakes,still cant bend my finger and still have the pain although not as bad as it was when I first pricked it. Going to give it until the medication has finished then it looks like another trip to the doctors.
