What are most dangerous are puncture wounds. Cats and dogs often get them if they have had a bit of a disagreement with another cat or dog or if a thorn gets in, but the worst are bite wounds. On the surface they can look like nothing to worry about and with a little antiseptic can start to heal and look okay.
But infection can still be going on under the surface, and they can get very bad indeed.
Another danger is abscesses. An abscess can be drained and look as if it is starting to heal up. But some abscesses have connections to another one deeper down, where the infection is still going on, and these need to be drained properly.
