You are lucky, you gave one heck of head start ! I saw this several times when working at the lumber yard, one of my favorite customers and contractors, got a sliver from somewhere on a roof they were working on, he was in the hospital for a week, arm in a sling and elevated, he could have lost it. Another got a piece of pressure treated stuck in his thumb, just a sliver, same thing, both swelled incredibly, something like that starts, you need to get after it immediately, the body is rejecting whatever it is and can't get rid of it, a lot of the fluid is dead white blood cells that have fought the foreign material, the body is something else when you think about it, it wastes no time reacting, which a person needs to follow just the same.
I rarely get any infections from cuts and lacerations, and usually when its hot and humid in the summer.
Glad to hear you got it turned around, just reread your post, man you're lucky, get well soon !!!!
