last night a stray cat bit me above my
left eye. Tonight almost exactly 24 hours
later I noticed 2 hard bumps behind left
ear swelling and hurting.Could this be
caused from the cat bite?The bite and
bumps may be a coincidence?but not
sure.Are the bumps something serious-like
should I see a dr. right away or should I
wait to see what happens?Any suggestions?

I don't know if that could be due to the
cat bite; however, you may be infected -
cat bites are notorious for being
infectious. I'd go to a doctor as soon as
possible.
