I stepped on a huge shard of glass last night and it fucked me up.

Some dickhead broke a window in this house before I moved in, and I guess they didn't clean it up very well, because I stepped right on the fucking thing while walking around my bedroom.

It was probably 1.5 inches long, it went about 3/4 of an inch in and of course the part I stepped on had a curved tip that acted as a barb so it cut me up some more when I pulled it out.

Blood everywhere, I left a trail of blood droplets around the whole damn house.

Maybe I'll get tetanus and die. We'll find out soon.

Did you clean the place before you moved in, and have you thought about letting a doctor see your foot?

We cleaned, yes, but there was that one errant shard of glass that probably got caught in between the boards in the wood floor.

I cleaned the wound and have kept it dressed and so-far haven't had any issue. If it starts to show signs of infection, I'll go to a doctor, but I washed it for a good five minutes and there was a lot of blood, so that probably expelled most of the infectious material.

It's not a particularly large wound, maybe a couple centimeters across, but it went in very deep, which is what worries me, but I haven't had any functional issues with my foot, and there's not really any pain unless I put a lot of pressure on that foot.

Yeesh. Sounds like that piece of glass was waiting in hiding for you.
