A Cold pack should be used to reduce the swelling, you can also clean the bite with soap and water and ever peroxide in case it is infected. If this does not help in a day go get a tetnus shot at the doctors.

If you have a human bite you should seek medical treatment. A human bite is actually worse than a dog bite the human mouth is much dirtier than the canine friends. I personally know someone that almost lost a finger because of a human bite. Medical attention is strongly advised.

you need to make sure its disinfeted. there are more germs and bacteria in a human bite than in a dogs. Other than that cold packs will help

Please have this seen at a clinic right away. Soft tissue injury can become infected. A break in the skin can lead to serious injury. Put a muzzle on whomever bit you!

I'm with VanillaBear and DogCatcher--
use some ice on it now while you get yourself to the doctor.

Is it infected? Maybe you need a tetanus shot, or use ice.....
