Understanding Dog Bite
A dog bite is a wound caused by a dog’s teeth. Even a small bite can carry bacteria, and in Turkey there is also a risk of rabies, so every bite should be taken seriously and checked quickly.
Why Dog Bite Happens
A bite or scratch from a dog, frequently a stray or unfamiliar one. Bacteria from the dog’s mouth and the skin can enter the wound, and rabies can be passed on through saliva.
How Dog Bite Is Treated
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.
- Note where the bite happened and what the dog looked like
- Cover it with a clean dressing
- Press on it with a clean cloth if it is bleeding
