Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms seem to be related to an infection of the scratch.
I suggest cleaning the scratch with hydrogen peroxide and cover it with an antibiotic cream.
If the symptoms continue, I suggest to go at the emergency room.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
