When should you see a doctor? A minor nail puncture may not require a visit to your doctor. But, if the nail or wound was dirty or the puncture is deep, you should see your doctor or visit urgent care. They'll likely give you a tetanus booster shot if you haven't had one in the past 5 years.
The Procedure Update the tetanus shot as needed. -Clean the injection site with Betadine or alcohol wipes; do not soak the hand or finger. -Anesthetize the area around the puncture site using 1% lidocaine. You may use lidocaine with epinephrine for extensive bleeding.
If the sharp object also hits a bone, the bone can become infected. Punctures of the ball of the foot are at greatest risk. The main symptoms are increased swelling and pain 2 weeks after the injury.
