Cat bit my wrist, now its really painful to move [pics included]!?
My cat bit my arm realllllly hard to the point I bled a lot today!. I was tickling his stomach, and he went nuts and bit the crap out of my wrist!. Now it really hurts to bend/move!. When I bend my hand backwards, it has a sharp pulling pain in my wrist!. I have 2 bite holes, and you can actually see down IN them they are so deep! Before I go to the ER, I just wanted to show a few pics to everyone to see what they think!. I would also like to add that its very swollen & is still swelling!. Thank you in advance!

Answers:
Cat bites can be VERY infectious!. Cat's saliva is full of bacteria and they can transmit a variety of different infections to humans through puncture wounds!. More than likely, you will have to have a tetnus shot and they will draw blood from you to determine if you have any other possible infectious bacteria in your blood!. I've been bitten several times by miscellaneous cats when I worked at a Vet clinic and although the bite wounds hurt, bleed & seep a lot, I've generally been "ok" when I've gotten checked out at the ER!. They'll probably put you on a broad spectrum antibiotic, cleanse the wound and recommend you to keep it dry and put triple-antibitotic ointment on it until it heals!. The days of getting "catch-scratch fever" are gone due to the regular vaccination schedules that people are bound to nowadays with their children, but you can never be too safe!. Get checked out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
