I have cat scratches on my left collar bone. the area is bruised ,tender and a little stiff. is that normal for a cat scratch? what's happening to me?

I would : See your PCP ASAP and make sure the area is not infected. Cat scratches are dangerous due to the bacteria found in the claws. So don't wait. See your doc
