Cat Scratch

Question

A cat scratched me 13 days ago. I immediately washed it with soap and water thoroughly The scratch completely healed within two days. There is no sign of tingling, itching, or irritation. Now everybody in my house is having coughing and sneezing, and I guess, because of that I am also experiencing that. Kindly, let me know if I should worry about it being related to the scratch.

After cat scratch if there is local wound infection at the site of scratch along with flu like symptoms plus enlarged lymph nodes then u probably have cat scratch disease. If this is not the case then u might have viral flu symptoms along with the other house members
