Self inflicted bites?

I was feeding my hog Rose today, and she's always strike-happy when it's feeding time. She's struck at her own tail before, but this time she actually clamped down long enough to draw blood and make a well sized scratch along her side.

Will she be okay if she accidentally envenomated herself? Is there anything I can do other than clean her cage spotlessly and put antibiotics on? (and oh great, need to handle the hog right after she ate...joy)
