You have sustained cut injury to your penis with old trimmer while shaving and You have cleaned the wound with anti septic lotion Dettol.

There is nothing to be worried about it as you have cleaned wound immediately after injury .

Wash your genitals with warm water mixed with Betadine twice daily.

It should heal up within a week .
