no need to treat cat scratch. It usually goes by itself in 2 month. But in case pain is there or trouble with node, aspirate it.

observation isn't an option in the stem.
Ans is trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole! way to go guys! For a typical case no need for diagnositic studies. and bartonella henslae cannot be cultured

diagnosis is mainly on clinical grounds and to support the diagnosis you can go for B. Hensalae antibodies test, or Warthin- starry stain.
tender LN and systemic symptoms can be debiliatating, so a short course of ABx is recommended.
5 days of azitromycin or
7- 10 day course of clarithromycin, rifampin, tri-sulpa, cipro or doxyclycine (UW)
