Trigger warning!

This is from 5 days ago. The really bad looking one opened back up. Should I get over my fear and go to the doctor tomorrow (if possible).

They’re basically cat scratches, I don’t see any fatty tissue or bleeding so none of the cuts are going past the dermis. Keep it clean and bandaged. If you have antibiotic ointment use a bit of that. Wash the wound with soap and warm water and change the bandage every day and you’ll be fine. The cuts are pretty minor.

@MarmeeMarch Yeah I forgot being able to self-treat minor cuts and scrapes is forbidden knowledge only taught by wizards in medical school. Calm your ‘tism.

@TheLastPlague Oh I self treat myself - but I am smart enough not to spout off some general medical advice - suppose she is allergic to something that you dont know of. Keeping it clean of course is just common sense.
