Dog Bite Explained
A dog bite is a wound made by a dog’s teeth. Even a small one can carry bacteria, and since rabies exists in Turkey every bite deserves prompt attention.
Care and Treatment for Dog Bite
You will receive first-aid guidance and an urgency assessment, and the doctor will tell you whether rabies vaccine, tetanus cover or antibiotics are needed; these must be given face to face at a hospital or clinic. Options may include 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
