Yes. Apply it several times a day & of course keep it clean.
If you don't have Icthamol there is a lime-green salve you can purchase in the horse section, I can't recall the name right now. Both are good for drawing things out, like slivers/bacteria/infection - it's used on horses for hoof abcesses and works very well, Icthamol can be found at the drug store.
Both take time though, a few days at least. Keep a baby wipe handy to wipe your hands or use gloves, that stuff is like tar.
May not be your issue but it crossed my mind.
