I was a big dummy today I checked the small piece of bone that had broke off of the one that she was chewing. I told her first then I pulled my finger out to wipe it so I could remove it since she isn't the best about willingly giving up goodies but she will. Me taking the easy way of just getting it made me mess up big time. I forgot to tell her again and stuck my finger in right as she chomped on the piece of bone and of course she chomped on my index finger without even knowing. It did puncture the inside right above the first joint and scraped right at the nailbed. I am afraid that I have already gotten it infected as now there is pus coming out. I have heard that putting neosporin on punctures is a bad thing. This was totally my fault and I just didn't think. She has released a bird when I told her and it flew out of her mouth unharmed. Any suggestions on my stupidity? Do I keep it covered with antibiotic ointment or leave it open for the air to heal it or just go to the dr and not worry?
