You : You need to seek medical care for a number reasons: 1. To make sure you are up to date with your tetanus immunization, and if not, to get an tetanus toxoid injection. 2. To determine if you have infection and to obtain treatment. 3. To make sure you do not have a chemical injury from the cleaning materials.

Agree with Dr, F: If you have not see a doctor so far, at least get an over the counter antibiotic cream like Neosporin and apply it to the wound to counteract bacterial infection.
