Question

If a child is bitten by a dog and there’s no bleeding, only bruising, does it still pose a risk of rabies infection?

Answer

Even if there’s no bleeding from a child’s dog bite, it’s crucial to immediately wash the wound with 20% soap water and use iodine alcohol for disinfection. It is recommended to visit a health and epidemic prevention unit promptly for the full course of rabies vaccine shots to prevent the occurrence of rabies.
