Can this cut be serious?

i got a cut (about 1-3 cm long) on the back of my hand, i think it's infected. Is this anything i should worry about?



I am a believer in Hydrogen Peroxide. Put it on your cut twice a day and after showering. If you begin to have red streaks going up your hand, call a doctor because it could be a blood infection at that point. A skin infection is easily treated, blood...not so much. Keep your cut covered if you work with the public but let it air out at home. You should be fine.




if it's not healing and the skin around it is purple than I would go check it out as soon as possible before it gets really infected. hope the cuts not serious.
