Thanks for posting you query to Chat Doctor .no need to worry if you don't develop any symptom of infection like fever .pain, swelling or pus at site of nail piercing .you can do cleaning and Chat Doctor. Systemic antibiotic use is not needed now as there is no symptom of infection, but you need to take injection of tetanus oxide by contacting to health care center and it is not late you can take it. Hope you would be satisfied with my answer.  Feel free to communicate if any query.regards,
