After all this anxiety shit I've been through and got over and pretty much cured myself without meds, my cat scratches me as he always does, and me being stupid of course I go google it. what's the first thing I see? Cat scratch fever.... Now my body is mimicking one of the symptoms... the chills. there's no evidence of cat scratch fever physically on my skin...

my cat scratched me, and there's this little bump on the site of the scratch, but its not red, it looks like scar tissue.

Put some alcohol or antibiotic cream on it. It should clear up within 1-2 days.
