[|Human|] Hi. I was just bitten by a dog I didn t know and the owner didn t offer any information about. It hurt but didn t break the skin or tear through my jeans. I have a purple and red bruise but no bleeding or cut. Do I need to get a tetanus shot or seek medical attention?
[|AI|]  Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor, Rabies is 100% fatal, but it is 100% preventable by proper and adequate treatment and this is transmitted by dog bite. As you were bitten by a dog and there is no information about the vaccination status of the dog. The bite has not led to break of the skin. You had a purple and red bruise but no bleeding or cut, according to WHO it is categorized into Cat II. For your condition I would suggest you to follow1. Wash the wound thoroughly with soap and water.2. Active immunization with antirabies vaccine on days 0,3,7,14 and 28.3. Inj TT, 0.5 ml,IM4. Topical Tract ointment. Thank you.
