Patient's question:
My child was bitten on the buttocks by a golden retriever puppy yesterday, which was only 46 days old. It was a minor scratch, and the wound was very shallow. We treated it promptly by cleaning the wound with sugar, soap, and iodine. The dog has not been vaccinated against rabies. Today, around 3 PM, my child is a bit cold and has a slight fever.Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you currently purchased, your child needs to have the anesthetic rabies vaccine. Rabies is a fatal disease; once it occurs, there is no cure, so it is essential to take early preventive measures. I suggest you take him to the health and epidemic prevention department of the local hospital in a timely manner to follow the instructions for the regular administration of the anesthetic rabies vaccine. I hope my explanation is helpful to you. The above is the advice for the question "My child was bitten by a golden retriever puppy yesterday and then developed a fever, what should I do?" I hope it is helpful to you, and wish you good health!
