Understanding dog bite
Dog teeth can leave wounds that carry bacteria, and in Turkey there is also a rabies risk, so no bite should be dismissed.
Causes and risk factors
Usually a stray or unknown dog has bitten or scratched the person. Germs from the dog’s mouth and the skin may get into the wound, and saliva can carry rabies.
Care and treatment for dog bite
The doctor can talk you through first aid, judge how urgent it is and tell you whether you need a rabies vaccine, tetanus protection or antibiotics, which must be given in person at a hospital or clinic. Depending on your case, the physician may suggest antibiotics where the wound is at risk of infection, tetanus protection and, when advised, rabies vaccine and immune globulin given in person.
- Press on it with a clean cloth if it is bleeding
