Treating Minor Infection · 处理轻微感染
basicI cut my finger a few days ago and now it looks infected. It's red, swollen, and there's some pus.
我几天前割到了手指,现在看起来感染了。又红又肿,还有一些脓。
Let me take a look. When exactly did you cut it, and how did it happen?
让我看看。具体什么时候割的,怎么割到的?
Three days ago, while cooking at my Airbnb. I washed it and put a bandage on it, but it kept getting worse.
三天前,在民宿做饭时割的。我清洗了并贴了创可贴,但一直在恶化。
It does look infected. I'm going to clean the wound, apply an antibiotic ointment, and bandage it properly. When was your last tetanus shot?
确实感染了。我要清洗伤口,涂抗生素软膏,并正确包扎。你上次打破伤风针是什么时候?
I'm not sure... maybe five or six years ago?
我不确定……大概五六年前?
We should give you a tetanus booster to be safe. I'm also prescribing oral antibiotics — take one pill twice a day for seven days. Finish the full course even if it looks better.
为安全起见应该给你打个破伤风加强针。我还给你开口服抗生素——每天两次,每次一片,吃七天。即使看起来好了也要吃完全程。
Okay. How should I care for the wound while traveling?
好的。旅行期间怎么护理伤口?
Change the bandage daily. Keep it clean and dry. If the redness spreads or you develop a fever, come back immediately or go to an ER.

Where can I buy bandages and the antibiotic ointment?
哪里能买到绷带和抗生素软膏?
Any drugstore — CVS, Walgreens, or Rite Aid. The ointment is over the counter, but the oral antibiotics require the prescription I'm giving you.
任何药店——CVS、Walgreens或Rite Aid。软膏是非处方药,但口服抗生素需要我给你开的处方。
