Suggest Remedies For Dog Bite

Anti-rabies immunization and Inj TT, do not cover the wound.
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query, albeit short and specific.
The dog is a street dog.
The dog scratched your feet where the blood came out.
Since the dog is a street dog and they do have habit of licking their feet and we can not know when he must have licked his feet.
Rabies can be prevented and there is no cure.
Hence I would advise you to immediately start taking the anti-rabies vaccination, starting the first dose on day 0 (zero), mean now.
To continue as per the schedule on the leaflet provided with the pack of the injection.
Also take Injection Tetanus Toxoid and the proper care of the wound. Do not dress/cover the wound, clean with plenty of soap and water and apply hydrogen peroxide and liquid povidone iodine.
I hope this answer helsp you. I have tried to simply and explain the need.
Please feel free free to ask for the relevant further queries if you feel that there is a gap of communication.
