Question on cat scratches

[adam4little]

So I've spiraled back down into crazy ville after finding a small lymph node in my right arm pit (I've had one in my left for some time) anyways in the last two weeks my cat has scratched and bit me on my right hand. Is this an explanation for the lymph node? The node hasnt hurt at all which has me worried.

Could be.  Lymph nodes swell when there is an infection of some sorts in your body.  Could be something as simple as a paper cut, cat scratch or virus.
