    If you are bitten by a puppy and bleed, you need to be vaccinated against rabies, otherwise it may lead to rabies. If the puppy bite is mild and there is no broken skin, you can use soapy water to scrub the bite area at home, then wipe the wound with iodine, wrap it in sterile gauze, and go to the hospital to ask if you need rabies vaccination. If you are bitten by a puppy and bleed, you must immediately go to the hospital for rabies vaccination, and if the wound is particularly deep, you need to debride and suture, and inject tetanus vaccine to prevent tetanus infection.

    Not only puppies, but also kittens and other scratches are the same situation, and you need to go to the hospital in time to get rabies vaccination. For pets such as puppies and kittens at home, rabies vaccination should also be carried out in time for pets, which can play a good role in preventing rabies, because once rabies occurs, there is no cure.

    If the dog has been vaccinated against rabies and has antibodies in the body within the validity period, it will basically not be infected with the rabies virus.

    Rabies is transmitted by saliva, so the main mode of transmission is "bite", and cases of scratching are rare.

    Therefore, if the dog has not been in contact with sick cats and dogs, there is basically no need to worry too much after being bitten or scratched.

    If a suspicious cat or dog bites (i.e., exposed), the wound should be cleaned and disinfected immediately and the biting cat or dog should be isolated for observation, and if it remains healthy during the 10-day observation period after the exposure, it can be concluded that the cat or dog is not infectious.

    Note: Be sure to pay attention to the role of wound cleaning, due to the poor external viability of rabies virus, rinse the wound thoroughly with soap and water for more than 15 minutes, which can kill most of the virus.

    If you are bitten by your own dog, regardless of whether your dog has been vaccinated against rabies, if there is a ** breakage, you need to be vaccinated against rabies.

    After being bitten by a dog, you should leave and rinse with running water and soapy water alternately for more than 15 minutes at the first time, and then disinfect with alcohol or iodine, and try to squeeze out the blood. If there is a ** damage or bleeding, rabies vaccine should be injected within 24 hours to prevent the occurrence of rabies, and rabies vaccine injection after being bitten by a dog is the only effective way to prevent rabies.

    If the bite of the dog is relatively severe, rabies immune globulin should be injected at the same time as the rabies vaccine. After vaccination, it is recommended not to drink alcohol, strong tea, coffee, cola, chocolate milk and other foods that contain caffeine. It is also necessary to avoid strenuous exercise and very heavy physical exertion so as not to affect the immune effect.
