How Can An Injury Caused By A Rusted Nail Be Treated?

I got cut with a rusty nail a few days ago. Today I ve just felt generally sick (dizzy and my stomach pain) and my wound has become puffy and inflamed. There s a few red lines and red bruises extending out from the wound which have been getting longer quickly. Should I see a doctor?
