go to A and E you might have an infection they will help i hope you feel better soon.
I totally agree with the above poster. I had the tiniest paper cut that turned into a bacterial infection. Be safe and see your Dr. It sounds like you definitively have an infection going on. Remar
I don't know about the ER, but definitely go to your Primary Physician or at least an Urgent Care clinic. You could be reacting to the glue used to keep the tops on the cans, or it can be infection, or something is in it. Clean it thoroughly, put some triple antibactierial ointment on it, cover it and go to a doctor. He'll likely give you oral antibiotics and give you a tetanus booster.
Small size doesn't necessarily mean not bad.... My roommate caught the tip of a sharp knife in her finger. It was a tiny tiny "cut" but it went clear in to the bone (which feeling the knife grate on the bone is a horrifying experience).
Good luck and please keep us posted!
