What dreadful diseases can be acquired from a swan bite?

Asked by rooeytoo (26981points) February 25th, 2013

On Sunday I was happily feeding pieces of bread to the black swans at the lake. One particularly hungry one almost took off my finger along with the bread. I didn’t have an opportunity to wash it until several hours later. Now 2 days after the injury, it is swollen, red, hot and very sore. I just wondered if anyone knew whether I am in imminent danger of death from swan bite?
