General doubt regarding hepatitis
I went for haircut today the barber uses a razor to shave my hairs behind my ear while shaving i got a small cut behind my ear and it starts bleeding although he changed the blade of the razor but he uses a brush on my open wound which he used to clean the hairs from the neck on everyone. Is there any chances of getting infected with hepatitis a/b/c. Should i go for any blood test now. I am very anxious.
