    1.After being bitten by an animal, the wound should be rinsed immediately. The key is the method of washing.

    Because the wound is usually closed like a valve, the wound must be broken open and rinsed. Rinsing the wound with tap water is a bit painful, but it is important to rinse it carefully to prevent infection as much as possible. After rinsing, cover the wound with clean gauze and go to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible.

    2.After being bitten by an animal, even the smallest wound may be infected with rabies, and at the same time, it can be infected with tetanus, and the wound is easy to suppurate. Patients should ask their doctor for rabies vaccination and tetanus antitoxin vaccination.

    Dog bites are divided into common dog bites and rabid dog bites (the latter is also known as rabies or hydrophobia), the former is mostly non-life-threatening, and the latter often causes the rabies virus stored in the saliva of rabid dogs (or healthy poisonous dogs) to invade the nervous system and multiply into the brain along the wounds of bites, licks or scratches, causing serious symptoms. In addition to dogs, the disease can also occur after being bitten by poisonous cats and wolves. The incidence of bites from infected animals is more than 10% to 70% of those who have not been vaccinated.

    What to do if you are bitten by a dog?

    Being bitten by a dog is more harmful to people, because the dog's teeth are full of various germs and viruses, which are easy to invade the human body through the wound, causing diseases and even causing death. If you are bitten by a rabid dog, rabies can also be caused by the rabies virus, and the mortality rate of rabies is very high. Therefore, a dog bite must not be taken lightly and emergency treatment measures must be taken:

    1 Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to distinguish whether you have been bitten by a mad dog, so once you are bitten by a dog, you should be treated as a mad dog bite.

    2 After being bitten by a dog, treat the wound immediately, first tie a tourniquet above the wound (can be substituted with a handkerchief, rope, etc.) to prevent or reduce the flow of the virus into the body with the blood.

    3 Quickly wash the wound with clean water or soapy water and thoroughly clean the wound. Do not bandage wounds.

    4 Prompt delivery to hospital for diagnosis and treatment, rabies vaccine and tetanus antitoxin within 24 hours.
