I'm a bit worried because my cat just scratched me on the leg and it broke the skin. This isn't the first time it's happened with the same cat, and now I'm reading about this Cat Scratch Disease. It doesn't hurt right now, but I'm really concerned it might turn into something serious. Should I be worried about this, and is there anything specific I should watch out for?
Cat Scratch Disease is usually a mild illness that resolves on its own. However, it's important to keep an eye on any symptoms that may develop, such as swollen lymph nodes, fever, headache, fatigue, or a rash. To reduce the risk of infection, you can clean the scratch with soap and water, apply an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment, and cover it with a bandage. If you develop any concerning symptoms, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like acetaminophen and consult with a doctor.
