Whitlow is a very painful and infectious viral disease of the thumb and fingertips. Rarely, it infects the toes and nail cuticle. It is a self-limiting disease and it is of two types - Herpetic Whitlow and Melanotic Whitlow.

After taking a pain reliever, cleaned the affected areas before cutting my skin with a blade. It was so painful. Alot of Pus came out. I'm releaved of the pains now.

Get well soon.

I remembered the Whitlow I had on my left thumb many years ago. The pain was on another level. When I touched the thumb, the pain I felt was directly from my brain . I didn't sleep for 2 days. When the pus started to come out, it felt like orgasm. The relief was too much.
