another needle question

[maria59]

hi
i asked this question privately and didnt get a response. It's simialr to worried's question.
I am 59 year old  and got stuck by a needle picking up my dog's poop from the park. The needle stayed on my finger till i pulled it off. There was some blodd inside the syringe so dont know how long it's been there. My finger bled a little.

is your guy's repsonse to this similar to Worried's scenario? should I seek PEP? Is this still a sctach or cut or since the needle stayed on that means something else
I would just like an answer please

You did not inject into a vein. NO RISK.

unlike Worried's scenariio, the syringe was still attached in my case, so is the response the same? in his case, he didnt even see a needle

so blood in the syringe poses no risk? i.e  cant seep in through my cut?
