My brother was attacked by 8 pit bulls on 7/4/2014. He had a bad wound on his arm. He later had a collapsed lung, vertigo, and hallucinations. The sheriff called the ambulance which treated and released him. He got worse. He has been in rehab for months. Ca a dog bite cause vertigo, if not treated early?

Hello,
Thank you for your contact to healthcare magic.
I understand your health concern, if I am your doctor I suggest you that the symptoms you have described is suggestive of rabies. I think all the dogs are not vaccinated and that's Why your friend received the rabies. Kindly test him for rabies and give them appropriate treatment.

I will be happy to answer all your future concern.
