<s>[INST] hi my name is Monique, I am 11 years old and about a few mins ago my right pinky got red and swollen, it is also itchy on the first joint, it hurts and stings inside my pinky when I touch it, I am not allergic to anything and I have been inside all day, I think it could be these gloves I was wearing before, what do you think it is and how do I get rid of it? [/INST] Hi Monique, your symptoms are acute and this could be either due to infection or allergy, chances of infection are more than allergy would have affected other fingers. Now what to do. Keep elevated, Do not massage Diclofenac 5o mg three times in a day if you are not allergic to the Chat Doctor. Cap Amos clan 675 mg twice daily for 3 ASCAP B complex one daily for 3 days. If it does not resolve consult a hand surgeon. </s>
