DD woke up crying last night her big toe was swollen and red . She saw GP this morning who gave her AB's for an infection in it but said if it got bigger to take her to A&E as it would probably need draining.
She has also advised that she keep off it as much as possible and prop it up she is 7 .
So what happens if we go to A&E if it gets bigger will she have to stay in and will it be very painful ?
I am also worried because she is meant to be going on a two day residential trip with school on Monday and she will be really upset if she can't go .
