[|Human|] My dad is 60 yrs old and undergoing treatment for symptoms of TB. sometimes he do get pink swollen toe. Now he getting that very frequently and if we give any antibiotic, it is reducing the pain but as he is taking medicines for TB, if he takes antibiotics he sweats a lot for app 5 hrs. How can we reduce his pain of pink swollen toe without any medicines?
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for contacting Chat Doctor. Pain and swelling of a toe that responds to antibiotics would indicate some sort of bacterial infection at that area. If this is the case, there would be no way to treat it without some type of medicine. Another thing to look into would be the circulation to the toe itself, as this can sometimes cause swelling and pain. It would be best to get the area evaluated by a physician to determine the exact cause. I hope this helps answer your question, if you have any further questions, I am here. Thanks.
