Need help. s/l paronychial infection SM
Subject: Need help. s/l paronychial infection SM

Says that the patient has a paronychial infection of his finger and also uses the term paronychial flap. 


My mind is blank, kids are home today, and I have spent way too much time trying to figure this out.


Would paronychial be correct or would parenchymal be correct?  Or are they both wrong?? Thanks so much!!!!
