that just not how it works. I am a registered nurse.
Not how what works? Surely you would have reported someone walking up and down in pain all night? In spinal unit Todmadol and paracetamols were standard for everyone morphine was an extra.
I was thinking same as muke (magnesium sulphate) but would a drawing agent work with something under a thumb? But that stuff is usually my second port of call (after hacking with a pin/biting out whatever it is I have stuck in me.
Pus. Not puss.
SD-253: towards the right of your keyboard there's a big button with an arrow with a right angle in it. Puts spaces between lines. It's very useful.

No idea why you have typed that? Unless you are talking about my first blog on page 1? that could probably do with a few paragraphs. But typing that much was begining to make my wrist painfull and I got lazy. Nowt to do with infection just using crutches all the time.
New update,
today the nail went blackish after being a horrible yellow colour underneath for a week or so, saw a DR freind last week who did what Drs usually dloo when you tell them something hurts, he squeezed my thumb, and said in the old days he would have heated a paperclip up nad jabbed it into nail, but cant do that anymore.
This morning a gap opened up betwen the base of the old nail and top of the skin on thumb, with what looks and feels like another nail growing underneath, gap now about an eighth of an ince, looks weird and doesnt hurt at the moment.
Is this natural.Pics soon.

Well it's growing on you so yes. Normal? Different question.
Sounds like you're losing the nail. Don't rip the old one off too soon.

I don't think putting pics of injuries on the internet for all and sundry to see is particularly natural, no.
Sounds right to me, that's what my last dead, manky nail did
Don't rip the old one off too soon.
definitely don't do this.
I ripped my big toenail off with a pair of pliers but the root came out with it - toenail has been brittle and 'floaty' ever since.
I had exactly this

My mate ollied a skateboard onto my thumb when I was about 14.
As I recall, my new nail started as a semicircle where the white semicircle of the nail used to be. It was soft, looked minging and hurt if a draught passed over it. Took a good few months to slough the old nail and harden TFU.
Nearly got suspended from school when the school bully slammed his fist onto it in geography and I instinctively punched him hard, right on the button (his nose). Luckily for him, I had to use my left hand, my right hand being incapacitated by the poorly thumb. Had it been my right hook, he'd probably be pushing up daisies. Or at least bled a bit more. True story.

Jesus Christ...it's like Count Zero on steroids three posts up ^^^
Don't get it ???
Lolz!
It's because I used to do long-ish posts on my iPhone, and if you hit return it starts a new line with a cap,
Like this has done, even after a comma, which is a pain.
Instead of having to go back and amend a cap. I'd just let the sentences turn over naturally when I got to the end of the text box.
It's easier to edit with the bigger screen on my Pad.
Your rather... extensive post left me feeling rather breathless by the time I got to the end. 😀
