Nail cutter clipped around nail edges

2023-12-11 05:56:07
My daughter is little over 2 months old. While cutting her nails, I accidentally clipped a minute portion of her skin around the nail edges and it bled a little. The nail cutter was not sterilised as such and hence i wanted to know if i need to take any precautions to avoid septic around it. I have ordered her a nail trimmer now. I will be using that henceforth.
