What to do if you get hurt by a construction nail?

If you get hurt by a construction nail, first clean the wound gently with soap and water to remove any debris. Apply an antiseptic and cover it with a sterile bandage. If the injury is deep, bleeding heavily, or shows signs of infection (such as redness or swelling), seek medical attention promptly. Additionally, ensure your tetanus vaccination is up to date, as puncture wounds can pose a risk for tetanus infection.
