Depeding on how you cut it, there is aso a possiblity that there could be something in the cut.
If the area is swollen or feel warm to touch or if there is a thick discharge or smell comming from the wound, then it is more than likley to be infected.
If any of the above are present you should speak to your GP. In the meantime, put plenty of anti bacterial cream on the wound and a clean dressing. Change the dressing regularlyadding more cream each time.
