It should not be a problem. Apply antiseptic cream. Watch for swelling, pain and fever. Follow up daily till it heals

No application of oil and water for next 3-5 days and apply T.Bact or any mupiricine ointment and scar to heal - no worries hopefully and you may apply round bandaid like application after giving ointment for 2-3 days
