Yes, we had tried those and also prescription mupirocin and none had worked by themselves. We wound up having to lance the infection on her finger daily and treat it with the mupirocin for a couple of weeks. Her whole hand was in a bandage for that time, and some of the doctors were telling us she might lose part of her finger if it wasn't treated.

I'm not sure I follow -- you tried topical antibiotics, it didn't work, you went to the doctor who recommended an oral antibiotic, you ignored that and tried a different topical antibiotic and it worked? What's your point exactly?
