Am I Feeling Dizzy And Hurting In Joints Due To Cut In Hand With A Dirty Blade?
hello, i cut my hand today on a dirty blade, i washed the wound with soap and water then cleaned it with an alcohol swap , that was 6 hours ago, the cut is not deep, it is a bit swollen, no redness, about an hour ago i started to feel dizzy, my joints hurt, and a feel a bit hot, it comes and gos, i can continue to work on my computer, it is not very bad, that is why I'm asking if there was any reason for concern, is it my body fighting something from the wound? and i will be better soon, or should i be concerned?
the wound does not look infected, there is no redness around the cut, it is just swollen,and it doesn't feel painful , thanks

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
You had a cut, there will be inflammation, and then infection follows, resulted in fever,chills, etc. So some of the processes are going on.
I advise you to consult a surgeon for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms, ofloxacin, ornidazole, and paracetamol.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts,and
protein rich foods to hasten the recovery.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
