green scab inflamed farthest point is this infected?

I recieved a scratch from a dogs toe nail a couple days ago. the first day it looked correct but now the scab is kind of green and red and inflamed around the edges, doesnt hurt to touch it but hurts to apply pressure to it.. does this sound infected or am I over react ??
Best Answer: It does sound infected. You should have it looked at by a doctor to determine appropriate treatment. An infection like this can head to complications if it isn't handled correctly early on, so go asap.
