Not really.: If you have some form of immune problem, you might be able to acquire bacteria easily this way, but, for a normal person, the bacteria that cause nec fasc will need to get under the skin first, to cause trouble. If you don't have a cut or break in the skin, it's very unlikely to be a problem.
