If there is pain under the fingernails, it is mainly considered to be onychia. Because it causes swelling of the tissue around the nail groove, it shows pain, and even forms abscesses when the disease is severe. Therefore, it is an inflammation, so the most important anti-inflammatory drugs are used, so symptomatic treatment is achieved. The main antibiotics are penicillins, because most of them are due to infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus, so the symptoms can be relieved after anti-infection treatment, but if obvious abscesses form, the treatment is relatively complicated, requiring a longitudinal incision along the nail groove to drain pus, so as to achieve better treatment effect.
