    Seems like you did everything right
    Jeanne,

    It seems that you did everything right and the other ladies agree. I have never cut myself on the arm effected by the lymphodema, but I have had bug bites, rashes, splinters, and stickers (I like to garden) and I have not had any major complications. When these things happen, I just do what you did; I wash it well, put an OTC antibiotic on the spot, and then return to my gardening.

    I know it's scary, there's not much about this disease that's not, but, that's why we have each other-it helps to make the scariness go away. :)

    I would say just put some
    I would say just put some antibiotic cream on it and a band aid. Keep an eye on it, but, it should be fine.
