Bite treatment

The principle of rabies exposure treatment is to prevent rabies virus from entering the central nervous system and causing rabies. First, wash the wound sufficiently to reduce the virus amount, and at the same time wash it with alkaline soapy water, which is harmful to the virus; Second, injecting rabies immunoglobulin around the wound can neutralize the rabies virus in the wound; The third is to inject rabies vaccine in time to prevent rabies.

Within 24 hours after vaccination with rabies vaccine, redness, swelling, pain and itching may appear at the injection site, which can generally be relieved without treatment; There may be mild fever, fatigue, headache, dizziness, joint pain, muscle pain, vomiting, abdominal pain and so on. Generally, it can subside without treatment.

In a few cases, if there is a moderate fever reaction, physical cooling method can be used first, and antipyretic and analgesic drugs can be used if necessary.

If the above symptoms appear after vaccination, you should go to a nearby medical institution with first aid conditions as soon as possible.
