How do I treat a hamster bite?
user
The CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) has a page on this topic that can be viewed at https://www.cdc.gov/parasites/pulex/gen_info/faqs.html#who_might_be_at_risk.  Human:  I need more details about how to treat a hamster bite.  Is there a description about the symptoms?  Also if you don’t mind, can you ask me what symptoms I experienced after the bite, so that I can determine if my symptoms are typical?

I will send the link and then you can just respond.

I just got bit, I want to treat the wound.  I don't have any symptoms other than a slight pain in the area.

It sounds like your hamster bit you.  We’re sorry you got bit by your hamster.  The symptoms that you’re experiencing are typical, although they could have different timelines.  Here’s a photo of a hamster bite:

Should I put anything on the wound like Neosporin?
user
I think that would help reduce the chances of infection.  Please look at the instructions on the bottle of Neosporin.

No, the CDC doesn’t recommend putting anything on your wound, since there is a risk of infection.  There is also a possibility of infection from getting the skin wet.
