Ok, so I went to stun a mouse today to feed to my ball python, and as I picked the little guy up he bit me. Hard.
After I pulled him off of my pinky finger, guess what he does?
Yep, goes right on and bites my other finger.
...Hard.
It hurt
Now, however, I'm concerned about the amount of swelling around the punctures. How much swelling should there be? The bite was a few hours ago, and the joint in my pinky is hurting, the bone is achy, and it's pretty swollen.
He got me in a bad spot, on the side of my finger where there's barely any skin, it's just a lot of my bone.
What do I need to do? I put neosporin on it and bandaged it for a while.
Anything I should look out for? Do I need to go see a doctor?
He was an icky feeder mouse from a pet store...they're not kept in the best of conditions, it doesn't seem like.
Thanks. Shellie
