Dog Bite, Teeth Were Locked In, No Blood. Do I Need To Be Vaccinated? Can I Trust Ayurvedic Medicine?
Hello Doctor , a dog has hold my leg into its mouth and its teeth locked with my jeens there was not much harmed caused to me but 1 cm area where its teeth was deep formed red and has bit pain its teeth not inserted into my skin nor blood out.
This was happen on 24th sep 2013 night around 10 PM and was went hospital next day. without examining the problem they simple suggested 1 TT with ARV (for 4 days) already one i had. will you please let me know whether i should be vaccinated or not . if i vaccinated then any side effects in future?
FYI : When i was below 10 years bit by a dog on my hand and bloody. and recovered after taking some Ayurvedic medicine. Will this cause problem in future.
Hello,, Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum. Still you are living in dark era. Just you bitten by a dog many years ago & treated with Ayurvedic drug. That was the treatment of wound , caused by dog. Now this is not a excuse that you are talking in such a way. There is no treatment of hydrophobia causes by rabid dog till now, scientifically proven . I have seen so many cases , who died due to rabies , however history of dog bite was there , but dogs were alive . In my opinion get a course of anti rabies vaccine for 5 injections as prescribed your doctor. Good luck. Dr. Het

Remember Rabis is one of the disease with 100% mortality, hence the benefits of gettting vaccinated are clearly better. There are hardly any side effects in present day vaccine. Even bite or lick on the mucous membrane is considered as significant exposure. So please complete the complete schedule of ARV . Take Care Regards
** 1. there is no treatment of Rabies, don't take risk just follow the prescribed regime of the anti rabies vaccine. 2. rabies symptoms take up to at least 14 days to show and sometimes don't show for over a year...so if you were not vaccinated earlier make sure this time you get vaccinated.
