Hello,

I need some assistance in dealing with a case I am dealing with. A patient came into my practice with infected halluxes. They are inflamed and have created a slight reddish tinge on the two toes. The issue is that the patient (a 16 year old) has been on roaccutane or accutane. The medication causes a whole range of side effects but the two side effects that have affected the patient are paronychia and excessive granulation. The patient has previously been on Augmentin, Cephalexin and is currently on Dicloxacillin. He stated that he has had the issue for around 6 months and that the antibiotics have only slightly repelled the infection. His right hallux has infections on both sides of the toe and his left hallux is only affected on one side. And finally on a recent swab test they found pseudomonas. I can attach images if required.
What do you guys and girls recommend?
Thank you for your assistance!
Kind Regards, eddy
