If I’m injured in a hotel room, should I be compensated?

I recently did somebody's hair for their wedding. I was their hairstylist at a hotel in New Orleans. One of the coffee tables in her suite had damaged trim and exposed nails. During the time that I was doing her hair, I backed up and one of the back of the nails went through my foot, and it immediately started bleeding. We had to stop the bleeding so I could finish her hair for her wedding. I let security know. They did an incident report, and I don't know what my next step could be. Is that something that I need to follow up on? Should I get something like a free room or something because of what happened, or should I just let it go like nothing ever happened?”
