I'm covid negative now, but I was experiencing mild symptoms. It's been about 4 days since my quarantine ended, and I'm feeling better. However, my nose is still blocked. Is it okay for me to use a Vicks inhaler to help with this?

Cat scratched my wrist, and I'm wondering if I just need to clean it or if there's a chance I need a vaccination. Should I be worried about tetanus or anything else? What should I do next?
