Vibriosis: In your case simply observing the area to look for any sign of a wound infection is all you need to do at this time as I assume that the area in question appears clean. Don't go in the ocean without some waterproof protection of any open areas in your skin. If you still have concerns, see a physician for evaluation and advice.
