Dear Patient,
in your case ruling out infection is a must, and that can be in form or cellulitis, you should not worry, take some rest, plenty of fluids, analgesics and antibiotics, clean the local area with antiseptic solution.
if it causes problem or does not heal, consult your doctor.
Hope your wounds heal soon.
Thanks
