What Causes Cold And Shivering After A Cut In Foot?

Hi, my friend has just cut his foot and has a reasonably deep cut, he seems ok but is complaining is he cold and shivering, is this a serious issue and should we be concerned? We've covered the area with a plaster and tissue and the bleeding seems to have stopped, we've held his foot in the area to reduce the blood flow to the area also.,

Hi,
It seems that there might be having bacterial infection on cut site giving this problem.
Consult your doctor and after removing plaster, proper cleaning and dressing will give him relief.
He might require one course of antibiotic medicine course as well.
Ok and take care.
