I cut index finger tip on a dirty, rusty knife?!


Question: I cut index finger tip on a dirty, rusty knife?
I cleaned it with antibacterial soup 5, 15, and 30 mins afterwards (3x) and did wash it with alcohol an hour later to be safe with a Band Aid. I was out and this was the best I could do. Its a clean cut, not a punture.

Should I stop worrying about it now?

I called my Chiropractor and he saw it and said it should be fine since its not a puncture... Still wondering though.

Answers:

Yes, it should be fine. And don't rely on a chiropracter for medical advice-- they're not medical doctors.



You'll probably be fine...but it wouldn't do you any harm to go to your Dr and get a tetanus shot,just to be on the safe side.



you will be fine
