Hi thank you for querry,
in human bites wound cleaning,wound closure,prophylactic antibiotics and tetnus injection.
Although rare human bites have shown transmission of clostridium tetni,
but recomendation of US disease control and prevention says that tetnus immunoglobulin and three dose vaccine series for those who have unknown tetnus vaccine history or those who have recieved fewer than e doses.
hope the answer will help you.
wish you good health.
