If you have tenderness and redness around the puncture sight, you may have any infection. Did you get stitches? If you didn't you might want to disinfect with Hydrogen peroxide and some Mercurochrome and top with an antibotic ointment like Neosporin or bacitracin. and keep it clean and bandaged. Otherwise, I'd see a doctor for some antibiotics

something that goes an inch into your foot, or any body part for that matter generally tends to hurt after :p

You really should have gone to the emergency room, and you should still go.
