Knife cut on palm

2025-05-25 13:12:59
Hi, Recently around 4-5 days back, I got a small cut on my palm while cutting veggies using a knife. The knife was new and sharp and I got a cut on my palm area. Now, the cut seems to be fine but I have started having pain around the affected area since yesterday. The area seems to be a little swollen too. What shall I do?
