augmentin cat bite

In my opinion, I think it was the Augmentin vs the Tetanus booster. Also, I think you are experiencing Labyrinthitis and need more testing than just an ENG and an MRI. Any medications ordered for the symptoms, i.e. Antivert, Phenergan?

I live in an are of NJ in which Lyme Disease is not uncommon. I removed an intact tick from my left shoulder blade area about 8 months ago. I didn't develop a "bulls-eye" rash but in the center - where the tick had actually been attached - there was a very dark red-brown surrounded by a thin whitish line and then a large red area around that. The area was sometimes itchy and sore and lasted for several weeks.

My cat was getting attacked by anothee cat last night and I went to grab my cat so I could take her away from the other cat. It was a stupid move because my cat was in defense mode and ended up biting me on the hand. It is a puncture wound that was bleeding. I washed it with soap and water, put hydrogen peroxide on it, perscription antibacterial cream and a bandaid. I have done this 3 times since last night and am now soaking in an epsom salt bath as well.

Make sure your tetanus shots are up to date as well. A cat bite is a puncture wound, not to mention that cats have a LOT of bacteria in their mouths, their mouths are not clean like a dog's. Flush the wound with peroxide and try to keep the wound from closing up on the outside. A puncture wound should heal from the inside out to make sure it doesn't get closed up where a pocket of infection could form.

It could have rabies and even if its a minor cut it can still give you something serious. Actually cat bites are prob the worst kind of bite you can get their mouths are full of bacteria!! They kill rats you gotta get checked out and call you're doctor.

Hes easy, but the black cat, snaggle tooth, that one will bite, cant say I blame him tho. Grey wakes me at night when his needs tended, it hurts him, but I guess less then when its left without constant fresh cleaning. This makes me want to cry. Greys been alerting to seizures and caring for me since last june. and I know a vet will want more then it costs for me to go to a doctor. When did people in such professions become so driven by Dollar Signs? it really sickens me how little they care.

Lisa, cat bites are the worst bites anyone can get...especially a feral who may have rabies or a host of other diseases that a domestic cat may not. The redness and warmth indicate an infection... Have you had a tetnus vacinne within the past 10yrs? I'm not a doctor, but I will tell you if the redness should get any worse or spread get to an ER immediately....this happened to me recently and the doctor there said it was a good thing I came in when I did.

Hi everyone, I have 3 cats that are litter mates. 1 little Princess girl, and 2 little stinker boys. I also have 4 other kitties. The 2 brothers came to blows about 4 days back and now 1 has an abscess by his ear on the top of his head. I've been able to clean it with some Chlorhexidine scrub and warm water a couple times since finding the abscess yesterday. This evening while cleaning it I started getting a lot of nasties out of it.

But if you get bit or scratched by a cat, get to a doctor or hospital immediately, there is a 98% infection rate with any type of cat scratch or bite. I know this as i worked with animals for many years. A friend of mine actually got bartonella's henslae from a cat bite, and they didn't diagnose it for 9 months, and she is dying now from complications.

I was bit by a friends cat who has never been vaccinated in her life the cat was 13 yrs old. The cat is now passed away and i was bit pretty bad so i am worried about rabies but the docs said they wont give me the rabies shot. Wondering what i can do??

7. Cough. Strep negative. Not really runny nose. Was on Augmentin but still has fever so changed antibiotics. I noticed yesterday that my child had red blotchy areas on his cheeks when we came in from getting out of the car. He also had areas that looked like a fresh moskito bite on his knuckles of his hands and he was scratching them. Then an area on his ankle too. After about an hour this all went away. No rash on arms, hands other than knuckle area, truck or legs.

give her a toy to bite on instead and; she's a kitten, she's playing. she would normally do this same thing with her litter mates who would cry if she bit too hard, and that way she would learn how hard is too hard. make sure that when she bites, you cry out (high-pitched mewling cry like a pained kitten would do) and she will learn not to do it.

I'm a 44-year old female, with asthmatic allergic response to cats since childhood. I smoked off and on from 18-39, about 5 pack-years. I've lived near a cat (outdoors with access to my husband's study) for 18 years, and have treated my asthma with albuterol, adding ventolin when necessary. About 12 weeks ago I caught bronchitis, then wildfires broke out near my home that made the air unhealthy for about 2 weeks. This provoked a severe asthma attack -- for three weeks.

Hi if the cat didn't bite you or if the saliva was dried out you can't get it. The animal's saliva has to be wet and get in a wound or open sore, in the eyes, mouth or nose. See below from the Centers for Disease Control or CDC: People usually get rabies from the bite of a rabid animal. It is also possible, but quite rare, that people may get rabies if infectious material from a rabid animal, such as saliva, gets directly into their eyes, nose, mouth, or a wound.

I have not heard of getting it from a scratch. cat bite are terrible they get infected a lot more than dog bite .

Hi, I have a cat who will 2 years old this Summer, so she's not a kitten anymore. What I don't understand is why she will chew and gnaw on things like a dog! My other cat never did this! We have decorative banisters that she will chew sometimes (I'm going to have to repaint them this Summer). She likes to get water from the faucet (something my daughter started letting her do that I'm not that happy about!

* You have a cat bite. Cat bites often cause infection. You don't need to call your doctor for a cat scratch, unless you think the wound is infected. * You have a dog bite on your hand, foot or head, or you have a bite that is deep or gaping. * You have diabetes, liver or lung disease, cancer, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) or another condition that could weaken your ability to fight infection.

Hi! Last February 22 at around 8pm I've been bitten by a stray cat in my palm. I got vaccinated 38hrs after the exposure February 24. I have a depression and anxiety disorder before so I kept on thinking about if I the cat has a rabies because I'm afraid of dying early. The reason why I'm so scared is that I have a fever inside like a burning sensation. It's my 11th day after I got bitten and eversince it bit me I can hardly sleep overthinking about the bite.

lucky my 8 year cat keeps bitting my partner she goes up to him he is just sitting down minding his own bussniss and she bite him nasty and runs off then he gets upset we both love her bits we dont tease her as it is not fair so why does she bite my partner

Hi, I recently was had a cat in my home that I watched while the owners were on vacation. The cat had fleas and since the cat has left my place, I have had to deal with many fleas that are hard to rid. Because of that, I have been bitten quite a bit and I seem to have a strong allergic reaction to the bites (very itchy!). I have been scratching the bite marks A LOT and have noticed that I have developed some bruises on my legs above my knees and on my arm.

My male cat got bite on the neck by my dog and it only took the fur off but my cat won't stop itching it and my cat has made big deep holes on his neck so now his itching it more

I think there is and has been a problem from the root canal and crown. I don't feel your dentist is being honest, seek a second opinion and go from there. Did he grind down that tooth, because if it's sitting "high" then you will always have problems as it interferes with your bite also and this may well be the reason you're having problems. I don't think this dentist is competent. Take care.....

Would this be for revenge? I don't see the protection angle, since a cat can bite just as fiercely with the teeth you are proposing to leave in his mouth, even if the canines were pulled. Does the cat bite because he is being mishandled, or because he was once feral and now has that deferred aggression thing feral cats sometimes have? We have one like that, and just don't pat him much, because we don't feel he's trustworthy.

Does it like anything I should be worried about, or am I going overboard again? The cat that bite me was my cat, and he's a indoor cat. He did break the skin.

A man in Bend, Or has been in the news the past month because he got Bubonic Plague from a cat bite which the cat got from a mouse or rat. Go to Urgent Care ASAP.
