Brief Answer:
get yourself clinically examined.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.
After reading your post, I would suggest that you should get yourself clinically examined by a doctor. You may need stitches if the wound is deep. You should continue with Advil that you are taking. An antibiotic may be needed to prevent any secondary infection. A clinical examination will help in planning further medical management.
I hope this is helpful to you. If you have any further query, I will be happy to help.
Regards. Thanks.
