Hi, I was making eggs today and I have a very small cut and some of the yolk touched it. I washed my hands and put on some bacitracin. Can I get salmonella poisoning or something like that?

No, if that egg was contaminated then there will be chances but if it was fresh then no need to worry. But still if you feel doubt then apply shatdhout ghrit ointment on it for 1 week.
