A few days past I was temporary a friends house. Her felid (who has always been neurotic) was sniffing my leg (I hit dogs & cats of my own) while I was sitting on a stool. She decides to take her claws into my leg to attempt to climb up so she can sniff my knee. Since this hurt, I gently proven to remove her claws. This ordered her off. She proceeded to move my hand...no...I don't mean play-fighting...I mean full bite & shaking her head while snarling. I can only adopt she was disagreeable to fortuity my hand's neck in exemplary felid fashion. =P There was quite a bit of bleeding & the area became rattling swollen. It made my full assistance hurt & the depreciate marks were unerect to reopening. The symptom lasted for 3 days. I am certain it bruised...at least it certainly feels bruised...however, I see no evidence of bruising. Any reason why this could be? Oh, & don't be worried about infection/disease. I undergo the felid hasn't been outside...so no rabies. I think the felid is just a little off in the head. She's gotten worse as she has grown older. I'm also up to fellow on my tetanus shot. I've been extremely certain so I can refrain infection. I undergo felid bites hit a tendency towards bacterial infection.

I really wouldn't worry as to whether it appears injured or not. Bruises are caused by paper damage (and the paper has bleed). There maybe paper damage without bleeding. Or the bleeding may hit occurred deeper low your skin. Has the swelling gone down? Does the wound look red/is itchy/painful or weeping some type of fluid/smells bad? If some of what I mentioned apply, go see your doctor to get it examined (as they are signs of infection). If hour administer and the wound appears to be healing, I really wouldn't worry about it. I would hit also mentioned a tetanus shot, but considering your up to date, you don't requirement to worry! Hope all goes well =D
