What Causes Painfully Swollen Wrist Post Being Bitten By A Cat?
I was bitten by my cat about 9a.m. It is quite swollen,pain, redness. The bite is on my wrist. I have had bites before, but they ve not looked like this. It is the 4th of July, my only choice of medical help would be the ER. Should I consider that if it does not improve over night?
