Is it from a hangnail? mine had this but i trimmed the hangnail slightly and the infection cleared up quite quickly. x

Mine has this as a newborn. I cleaned it with cooled boiled water and put sudocrem on a few times a day, then when it went yellow, I gave it a squeeze to drain the pus and repeated with cleaning and sudocrem. If I wasn’t able to drain it my health visitor said to go to GP as they could try drain it x
