Hamsters are cute little animals, is there an incubation period when bitten by hamsters?

When it comes to the cute little animal of hamsters, I believe that many people have raised them, and when we usually play with cute little hamsters, some small accidents will inevitably occur. For example, if a baby hamster bites a finger, some people may not take it seriously, but when they hear that they may be infected with plague or rabies virus and have a certain incubation period, they are scared. So what is the truth?

Here are the answers for you.

In fact, as pet owners, being bitten by their own pets is a relatively common thing, because there will always be a run-in period when getting along with them, during which some small injuries can be avoided, but it is not excluded that some owners just like to play with their pets, and as a result, they will hurt themselves by eating their own fruits. So is there an incubation period for hamster bites, and what is the result? From a medical point of view, a hamster bite depends on the severity of the situation to determine whether there is a possibility of being infected with the virus, and therefore whether there is a possibility of an incubation period.

When we are bitten by a hamster, we must not be careless, we must clean the wound in time, although the hamster is relatively clean and hygienic, and the possibility of carrying the virus is very small, but it cannot be completely ruled out. If the bite wound is not deep and only a little bit of skin is broken, and there is no bleeding, there is basically no major problem, wash the wound with soapy water or clean the wound with disinfectant alcohol or iodine wine, and then pay attention to the diet.

If the bite wound is deep and bleeding, you need to pay more attention, in addition to basic disinfection treatment, it is best to go to the hospital and ask the doctor if you need to be vaccinated. Generally speaking, it is best to vaccinate against tetanus and rabies for the sake of insurance, because although domestic hamsters almost do not carry any bacteria and viruses, if the newly bought baby hamsters have not been examined, they may carry them, and if they are bitten, the risk of infection is much greater.

In most cases, there is little incubation period for a hamster bite, but it is worth noting that there will be a one-month period of blood fever. If you don't want to worry about this, it's best for owners to be more careful when playing with hamsters.

Generally, there is an incubation period. It's about 2 weeks. After being bitten, you must pay more attention to the condition of your body, and if you have symptoms such as fever and headache, you must seek medical attention in time.

There is also an incubation period when bitten by a hamster, and the incubation period is generally 14 days, if there is no seizure for more than 14 days, it is generally fine.

Of course, there is, generally between 4 days and 46 days, so you must pay attention to observe whether the body has a fever, and go to a regular hospital**.

There are many reasons for hamsters to bite, such as insecurity, sensitivity to smells, or treating hands as food, which need to be corrected according to the specific situation to avoid hamsters biting again. It is also possible that the owner did not grasp the strength of the hamster well when holding it, which made the hamster feel uncomfortable, and there may also be biting behavior.

The sudden bite of a hamster is often due to the hamster's self-defense reaction of being suddenly surprised, but the sudden startaway turning back is a memory reflection of the muscles.
