Sewing needle foot puncture wound taking a long time to heal. Is it normal?
Posted on December 29th, 2009 by admin
I stepped on a sewing needle on my carpet 2 weeks ago. I went to a doctor recently and got a tetanus shoot and antibiotics. Is it normal for it to take this long to heal. My foot still hurts like hell and I can barely walk. It feels like my foot is broken almost, it hurts that bad at times. Doctor said the tissue will heal and i will be fine. Just want to know if anyone had a similar experience and if it took to this long to heal.
go to an urgent care.

yes i stepped on a nail and the wound goes deep into your foot where it is harder to heal because the cells near the skin are made to heal faster but when its deep it can take longer to heal. It would not be a bad idea to go to a doctor if you think there is a problem. Make sure you keep it clean so it doesn’t get infected and don’t be afraid to go to a doctor if you are concerned.
