May I suggest google. Without going into detail, and increasing the chances of getting something wrong :chuckle , yes you could get septic from any type of wound that becomes infectious especially if you have a compromised immune system. The main sympton is hyperthermia.

*disclaimer* As always, if you think you or someone you know may be "septic" the best course of action is a trip to your physcian.
