Will tooth scratch get infection on baby

2023-05-19 17:30:59
My baby is 8 months old. While he was playing with me, he hit my teeth with his foot because of which his skin was torn on the surface of his foot. As human bites are infectious and dangerous I am bit worried if he might get any infection. I have attached the image. Kindly check and please advise me if I should take any precaution?
