Hey guys, basically, I was in the bathroom last night, barefoot, and I stepped on a drawing pin which some careless person had just dropped and abandoned. The pin went about half-way in and got stuck there. I managed to carefully pull it out after only a few seconds, and I quickly sprayed it with anti-septic spray which luckily was close at hand. I cleaned away the blood and washed it, dried it and stuck a plaster on it.

The pin looked fairly new and clean (I know it wasn't clean, but it didn't look obviously dirty, and it wasn't rusty either) I'm just worried that it'll get infected, as I've heard some nasty stories of swollen feet and stuff. It doesn't hurt though at all, I can walk fine. It just looks like a very small round bruise, nothing else.

What are the chances of it getting infected? Anything to worry about?

Thanks guys, appreciated. Sorry if I sound....pathetic, lol...
