My cat bit me during a bath. It’s on the wrist vein but i don’t think it punctured it because it did not bleed alot. Within a couple of hours it became swollen and it burns. The pain goes up the arm almost to the elbow and down into my fingers. Dumb Question but i don’t have insurance and am currently laid off. Should i seek medical treatment or is it just sore and will feel better soon?

TICK TOCK
U GOT 48 HOURS TO LIVE
That is not good, you have a bacterial germs going through your blood stream.
You have only 49 hours to live at the most, get to the doctor as soon as you can! My Aunt died by a cat biting her on the vein..
never heard of it before it may have damaged your vein and ur cells are trying to cure ur hand which it y it burns. the swelling should go down if not see one of those free doctor check ups
I think you are ok but if the arm is still swollen and painful tomorrow go to a free clinic or something.
Hello Wanna,you and I are in the same situation;jobless without insurance.I have six cats.
The pain is because of the shock to your system and is nothing to worry about.Douse the wound with hydrogen peroxide and just
"tough it out".Sorry for the blunt answer.
You will be fine.I have lots of kitty tattoos.
You really should call & talk to someone from any clinic & tell them about what happened, they will tell you what to do or use just by calling, pick out any urgent care clinic someone will help you even without insurance.
My cat plays & bits me but it never burns.
Your cat does get it’s shots yearly I hope!
Good luck hope all goes well for you.
