    Angry OMG, my cuticles!

    I got a manicure at a new salon Saturday. My boss had given me a gift certificate to redeem there.

    Now, the skin underneathe my cuticles is peeling and infected. Its red and throbbing on 5 fingers, nasty, and it hurts!

    I am going to the store to get some bandaids and Neosporin since I can't find any here. But is there anything else I should do? Should I go to the salon and complain? They do use a sanitizer machine there, but they don't let you buy your own tools, which are kept at the store, like my usual place.

    What would you do? It hurts so bad everytime I have to reach into my purse to get something, the skin gets nicked and peels even more, ouch!

    Go back to the salon and complain. Then, never go there again. You may want to tell your boss to find another place.

    If the infection gets worse or does not clear up, go to the doc asap.

    Also try soaking in them in hot water and epsom salts.

    Hot water with epsom salts. If the infection isn't gone by the time you go to sleep use bandaids to tape fresh garlic slices over the infected areas, and leave them overnight. Garlic is an antibiotic and will kill the infection.
