Hello,
Thank you for writing your query to HCM,
I would like to inform you that as you described its nothing serious that shows you have to take injections.
As, You described you are having just scratch on your body,
So i would like to suggest its will be fine if you will not take injections.
Also suggestion that please go to doctor once he/she will prescribe medicine for not getting infected.
Hope you will find it out helpful.
Thanks & Regards,
Dr. Gaurav Prajapati
