Small bruise around dog scratch?
Hello
My dog scratched me today (it didn't bleed) while we were swimming in the lake. Now a small bruise has appeared around the scratch. I think the one above it also appeared when I was swimming with my dog. I should also mention that a few days ago she found a dead rat (it must have been dead for a few months) in my barn and started playing with it.
I'm a bit of a hypochondriac, so I'm already imagining the worst-case scenarios in my head.
So… does this look like the onset of sepsis or even rat fever?
This is no longer visible in two days and neither a beginning sepsis, nor rat bite fever.
No, there you have caused the rather blunt violence to bleed under the skin. If you have no symptoms, you can be calmed. That’s the same as a blue spot.
All right, that’s just a harmless bloodshed. It heals all by itself within a few days.
No.
If you’re worried, go to the doctor.
You’re healthy.
Don’t worry about it.
I meant physically.
