Squirrel scratch??

2025-04-17 07:03:02
On 7th April, a squirrel entered our house. When we tried to get it out of our house,it accidentally touched my toe. It just happened a second. Iam really scared whether did I get any scratch from squirrel.I am not sure whether the scratch is from the squirrel. I just washed the toe with soap. Also, it was a baby squirrel. It's claws were so small, very difficult to watch with normal eyes.

If no wound, nothing to worry. Just take 0.5ml injection tetanus toxoid and apply povidone ointment over scratch.
