Should i get tested?? injury...

Hi all,

Today i was playing football (5 a side with afew people from my work) and i was involved in a tackle where my forearm caught the other guy in his mouth, i now have a slight cut on my arm from his tooth. There was little blood on my arm and he had a cut mouth from his lip.

I am really worried now (as i suffer from parionia  :-( ).

Should i get tested?

Cheers

No not at all. You should read some of the posts in this forum. There is no way the doctor is going to answer your question because there is absolutley no risk of infection.
