I cut myself a few days ago, and it was fairly deep. It bled on and off for two hours or so. I clean it every day, but today I noticed it hurts when I walk on the leg that has the cut. Also, I noticed it's warm around the cut. I also seem to be really tired and I have a fever. Should I be worried about this? Should I tell my mom?

Yes, you should be concerned. The fever *could* be connected to the cut, but it might not be. Better safe than sorry, infected wounds can very dangerous to leave medically untreated.
Please do tell your mother. You could make up an excuse if you really need to, but it sounds like you need to see a doctor.

I told my mom.
She took me to the ER cause it was pussing and turning greenish. I told her that it was an accident, but at least it's not infected anymore. It was a nasty cut though. Thanks guys
