Paeds podiatry problem

Ok, the Paeds month is coming to its end. But here us a common, curly clinical question. 13 yo girl presents complaining of a sore, red, smelly toe.  It is stopping her from soccer practice – cant Bend it like Beckham any longer….

How do you manage this:

Specifically – what do you do with this patients toe :

next week?

and for the longer term?

This is really GP bread n butter stuff. But I know there are heaps of opinions out there – are you passionate about paeds peds?
