My cat scratched my arm last week and I noticed the middle part of the scratch has completely healed. However, both ends of the scratch are extremely itchy and a bit swollen, like the size of a mosquito bite. Should I be concerned?? Is this what they call a cat scratch fever? HELLLPPP!!

Time to call the doctor. Scratches can get infected easily and since this happened last week, better safe than sorry.

Good luck and let us know how you make out.
