Asking For Self, Female 21, Karachi
This morning I woke up and there was a small cut on my hand. My nails are short and I was sleeping on the bed. I don't have a pet, but cats often roam the street outside. I didn't feel anything. It's just a sign of a cut. i have anxiety what should I do
Clean it with alcohol swab.
Injection.Tetavax I/m stat.
If you are sure that a cat or mouse had not bitten you then don't worry and do what I have advised you as precaution. In case of cat bite same injections are given as of dog bite to prevent Rabies.
while sleeping, do cats have access inside your bedroom?

It didn't look like cat scratch. So better just wash and clean. And later if feel any more redness or swelling etc, then may consider further step.
