It's extremely important to contact a medical professional immediately if you've been accidentally stuck with a needle that was used on an animal.
Here's why:
* Blackleg is a serious bacterial disease in cattle. It's not transmissible to humans in the way you might think.
* The risk of contracting a disease from an animal through a needle stick is very low but not impossible. It depends on the specific disease, the animal's health, and the type of needle used.
* A doctor can assess your risk and provide the appropriate treatment. This might involve a tetanus shot, antibiotics, or monitoring for any signs of infection.
Please don't hesitate to seek medical attention. Your health is paramount.
