I was hanging a small medicine cabinet over the toilet. The shower is to the right of the toilet. I drilled two holes for drywall anchors. When drilling one of the holes I felt something on the other side of the drywall and immediately stopped. Fearing I may have hit a plumbing line or electrical wire, I cut a small in the wall to peak in. Sure enough there was a plumbing line there. I don’t know why because all the plumbing comes up from the crawlspace and it’s a one story house? Anyway, here’s an image of the pipe. You can see the nick in it. Should I have this area replaced, or is the nick superficial enough that I don’t need to worry about it? Thank you

Ps: I think pipe is about 2” wide

If you have some PVC glue hit the spot with a dabber. You're looking good otherwise. It is always a wise thing to drill a hole through drywall only then poke a screwdriver in to see what's in the wall.

Do you think it would be OK without the glue?

Hard to tell from the picture.
Do you see any nail holes in the pipe?
If not, "No damage , no foul".

It could be a vent pipe, but still must be puncture free.
