Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
This morning I saw a baby kitten in the road so I pulled over stoped traffic and took it to the other side of the road, in the meantime it bite me on the pinky finger and scrached me twice. The bite wasnt very deep but it did draw blood, the scraches didnt bleed but are sore. Ive washed it with hot water and soap, I also put alcohol and peroxide on it as well as neosporin. my question is whether or not to go to the doctor ( I feel fine)
