Running in the morning, I was rushed across my pants by an untied dog from behind. Because it was very sudden, I didn't know whether I was scratched or bitten. There was no contact with the wound. Is there any possibility of rabies? (I was afraid of dogs since I was a child. In addition, I had some itching on my legs last night. I scratched wildly in my sleep, but it should not be scratched. I was worried that I might get into rabies virus)
Condition Analysis:
According to the condition you provided, you will not be infected with rabies virus in this case, but you need to further wash the wound with soapy water and disinfect it with Iodophor.
Guidance:
If you are really worried, you can choose to inject rabies virus vaccine to protect your body. There is no particularly good way to prevent rabies virus infection.
Condition Analysis:
If you are thrown across your pants and there is no skin damage or bleeding, it is generally not affected. If you are directly bitten by an animal, or the saliva of an animal enters the blood through a wound, this situation is easy to be infected. Always stay away from cats, dogs and other animals and pay attention to rest.
Condition Analysis:
If there is trauma, you need to inject vaccine as soon as possible to prevent the possibility of rabies virus infection. Iodophor disinfects the wound to avoid repeated stimulation and prevent bacterial infection. If there are other discomfort symptoms, you need to check and treat in the hospital as soon as possible to alleviate the symptoms, so as to avoid delaying the disease and other complications.
