Dog Bite Explained
Dog teeth can leave wounds that carry bacteria, and in Turkey there is also a rabies risk, so no bite should be dismissed.
Common Triggers
Usually a stray or unknown dog has bitten or scratched the person. Germs from the dog’s mouth and the skin may get into the wound, and saliva can carry rabies.
Symptoms of Dog Bite
- Bleeding
- Puncture, tear or scratch in the skin
- Pain, swelling and bruising
- Fever or swollen glands if infected
- Redness, warmth or pus a day or two later
