Have it evaluated: I have see simple wounds from a similar event lead to a puss filled abscess within the complex layers of the foot. Hospitalization & surgery were needed to drain the abscess & begin antibiotic treatment. Three different germs were found. I would not ignore this, it sounds infected.
