[QUOTE="Sreena, post: 150, member: 53"] few days ago, my child got poked by a nail. I checked the nail, it was sharp, pointed and rusted. I cleaned the wound, applied clean water with anticeptic dettol-water I even use two thumbs to extract some blood out from the wound. then I went to a pharmacy. I was very worried because my child is just 34 m/o. I couldn't sleep that night too. the wound areas was appearing bluish. so I cleaned with [B][I]betadine[/I][/B] and bandaged her properly as pharmacist advised to keep away from soil/mud, to prevent from further infections. so to bandage is must. --- If your child has had already received DPT vaccines over the period within six-weeks and after ten-weeks, then your child is [U]safe[/U]. the DPT vaccine works until five-years of age. I can confidently say that my child is safe, though it took five-days to heal completely. ---- [/QUOTE]
