[|Human|] Got a very minor dog bite which was cleaned with soap and water and then covered, scanned over in just a few minutes and over the next four days has developed a bumpy itchy rash with no discoloration. What is the cause and can it be treated with out visiting a doctor
[|AI|]  Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor, As you were bitten by a dog four days ago, and you have washed the wound thoroughly with soap and water. Washing the animal bite wound with soap and water will clear off 95% of the virus if it presents at the wound site. The rabies virus is very sensitive to detergents and water, it is first and important step in the management of animal bite. As you a developed a bump around the bit site it may be due to internal bleeding following the animal bite, nothing to worry it will come down by reabsorption. But you need to take both active immunization and passive immunization with antirabies vaccine and antirabies serum respectively. You may require a course of antibiotic, Tab Augmenting is an excellent Chat Doctor. Thank you.
