Usually when playing with cats, there will inevitably be scratches by cats, under normal circumstances, if there is no bleeding or a little bit of broken skin, you don't need to fight, the virus generally does not enter the body, and the chance of infection with the virus is not large. If the cat in the house basically does not go out and is always at home, it will not be infected with rabies under normal circumstances.

    But for the sake of safety, the doctor still recommends to hit it, don't think that it is okay if it is not broken or bleeding, after all, there must be bacteria in the cat's paws scratching in various places all day long, and it must be more reassuring to hit it.

    People who are scratched by cats are prone to "cat-scratch disease", which is an infectious disease caused by the invasion of the human body by Bartonella henselae bacteria after being scratched and bitten by cats. The clinical manifestations of the disease are variable, but the main features are local skin lesions and lymphadenopathy in the drainage area.

    For the shovel officer who has a cat, the skin is scratched by the cat.

    It's a matter of course. For the Star Beast Shovel Officer, when he was caught for the first time, he would still be terrified, always worried about whether he would be infected with the rabies virus. For the veteran shovel officer, I believe that they are already very aware of it, know what to do, and take it as a common thing to be caught by a cat.

    Next, for novice shovelers, let's popularize what to do after being scratched by a cat, and then use injections?

    I was scratched by a cat and slightly broke my skin, do I need to get an injection?"/>

    1. Treatment of wounds after being scratched by cats.

    1. Emergency treatment of slight skin breaking after being scratched by a domestic cat.

    This is the first case, that is, after being scratched by a cat, but it is only a simple broken skin, and there is no bleeding. At this time, the shovel officer should immediately clean the wound and then do a good job of disinfection! First of all, it is recommended to wash the wound scratched with soapy water for about 20 minutes, and then apply medical iodophor and alcohol.

    2. Emergency treatment of broken skin and bleeding after being scratched by a domestic cat.

    After being scratched by the cat, the skin is slightly broken and bleeding, first after the rinsing and cleaning steps, the blood in the bleeding place is squeezed out of some, and the main effect of squeezing blood is to bring out the pathogenic bacteria that enter the surface of the wound through bleeding, and then you can use iodine wine and pharmaceutical alcohol to repeatedly rub the wound after the cat scratch, disinfect it two or three times, until the bleeding stops naturally. It is advisable not to bandage the wound and leave it exposed for rapid healing.

    I was scratched by a cat and slightly broke my skin, do I need to get an injection?"/>

    2. Injection treatment after being scratched by a cat.

    Usually after cleaning and disinfecting the wound, many shovelers are still not at ease, but this actually makes sense. Here it is recommended that if your cat has been vaccinated with a full course of vaccination, and has antibodies up to the standard, then in fact, the shovel officer does not necessarily need to be vaccinated against rabies, but the tetanus shot can be given, and the shovel officer who is not at ease can also be vaccinated against rabies, depending on personal needs. However, if your cat has not been vaccinated or has not been vaccinated, then it is recommended that the shovel officer who bleeds from the wound after being scratched by the cat should be vaccinated.

    Even if it is scratched by a cat a little bit, only the skin is broken and there is no bleeding, it also needs to be disinfected, no bleeding does not mean that ** has not suffered damage, there will still be bacterial infection.

    Possibly. Understand.

    If you are scratched by a cat, you need to get an injection if you are scratched by a claw, regardless of whether you are infected or not, you must be vaccinated. If you are scratched by a domestic cat and slightly break the skin, you generally do not need to be injected, and the wound needs to be treated in time to avoid leaving marks.

    This is because although rabies virus may not be present in cat's paws, there is no guarantee that there will be no tetanus or other germs, and once these germs come into contact with the blood, the blood will become the best part of their natural growth and reproduction.

    Therefore, there is no guarantee that these germs will not reach other parts of the body with the breach, so it is necessary to prevent and deal with them.
