Asking for Self, Female, 22 years old, Karachi
My cousin bit me in the thigh, he’s not well mentally. He bit me through 2 layers of clothing, a shirt and a pant. I don’t think it bleed but couldn’t check on the spot as it was crowded and also I withdrawn myself immediately so wasn’t expecting something serious. Kindly tell do I need RABIES or TETANUS Shot ?. I had a Tetanus shot in 2018 after an accident. Attaching the picture of bite mark. The bite mark is a bit raised.
Consult nearby MBBS doctor.
if your cousin is not a dog and rabid no need of any vaccination just apply pyodine and chill
no need of rabies or tetanus
so if it was tetanus vaccine you are immune for 5 years but if it was tetanus Ig you should inject one dose vaccine and no need tetaglobin as wound is clean and not neglected
If a person bites another person we give tetnua vaccination bt f a perosn z already vaccunated in a year or so no need of vaccuantion
