In our daily life, we all have the experience of being bitten by a dog. How to deal with it correctly after being bitten? It is easy to cause rabies after being bitten by a dog, so how to deal with it urgently after being bitten by a dog?
1. Wound cleaning
To wash the wound thoroughly, first wash it with 3% - 5% soap water or clear water. If the wound is deep, the syringe must be extended into the wound for perfusion cleaning. All the dog's saliva should be removed as far as possible. The time should be half an hour.
2. Wound application
The application of the medicine is correct. Some patients feel that the wound is not big. They can just apply some red and purple potions at will, which is wrong.
The correct way is to wash the wound with alcohol and iodine. Wound treatment should be completed as soon as possible, even if it is 1-2 days or even 3-4 days later, do not ignore the treatment of the wound. At this time, if the wound has scab, also remove the scab and deal with it according to the above method.
3. Vaccination
Keep in mind that the wound should not be bandaged or seamed, and the wound should be exposed as much as possible.
To take active immunization measures, i.e. to inject rabies vaccine, the earlier the bite is injected, the better:
In general, the patients were inoculated 5 times, once on the 0, 3, 7, 14 and 30 days respectively; 2ml was injected intramuscularly each time.
Patients with severe bites were vaccinated 10 times, one injection per day in the first 6 days, and one injection per day in the 10th, 14th, 30th and 90th days. The injection dose is the same as before.
For those who were bitten again within one year, they were vaccinated once in 0, 3 days respectively; for those who were bitten again within one to three years, they were vaccinated once in 0, 3, 7 days respectively, and for more than three years, they were vaccinated again. The injection dose was unchanged.
hot tip
No matter whether the dog has been vaccinated or not, it should go to a doctor in time and seek a normal medical method. Do not have a fluke mentality.
