I gave him Benadryl right away, it did nothing. That's what I was concerned about. I spoke to the doctor today and he said that it can take 24-48 hours for the antibiotic to really kick in, so hopefully I'll be able to get a shoe on this kid by tomorrow for school.
The Benadryl is good for him because it will help him sleep tonight and stop him from scratching, but it's definitely an infection. It's really hot to the touch and all pus-ish and gross.
