abcess? possible staph infection

My husband has a wound the size of a quarter on the top side of his left wrist that when i first noticed it looked like a spider bite. He says no; he had a wound from his watch scratching him. It is now infected but has not come to a head though it is very red and extremely sensitive to touch; his whole hand is now also very swollen (not his fingers.) i have been giving him silicea 6x and hepar.sulph.30c and am putting goldenseal powder on the actual wound though i am not sure it is open enough to get inside. I thought it would be better this AM but it appears unchanged. Does anyone have any suggestions other than to have patience?

Hepar Sulphur 30 is a wrong choice. Use 3 or 6X.

Girlilal:
Thanks for the link; really interesting. Do you have any thoughts on whether to try the Calcarea Sulphurica
or to just use the plaster of paris or sheetrock? I couldn't get a clear idea from the posts. If so would i do this in place of the hepar and silicea or in addition to them? Also, is the reason to use a 3 or 6x because they work more quickly and the 30c is deeper acting but slower? I also read several posts for somewhat similar conditions that recommended bruised cabbage leaves or broccoli juice; do you are anyone else know what this is supposed to do and if i should pursue this as well?

Thank you!
