    Blood poisoning is when bacteria enter and infect the blood stream. If you have reason to believe that you have blood poisoning, you need to see your doctor immediately. It is listed as a serious condition.

    Wash with clean water.

    Disinfect with hydrogen peroxide (or alcohol to dry it out).

    Cover with Polysporin.
