space9880:I tried to upload pictures but airtel is just bad right now. The one that looks like a little puncture(they said that's the bite) is not deep, I can press it and not feel much pain but the other two lines which the suggested was from its teeth is more painful |

Walkee:as long as you have taken anti rabies and anti tetanus shot you have nothing to worry about. |
Re: Help! I Got Bitten By A Local Dog by Walkee: 9:34am On Dec 13, 2021 |
space9880:OK thank you but I have only only taken one shot of the anti rabies, they said I need at least 3, so I was thinking maybe I could skip the remaining two doses because I don't really have enough money for them right now and the dog doesn't look sick or aggressive or anything. It's not chained, it's still walking around the compound with a lot of people around without attacking anyone or showing any form of abnormal behaviour |

Walkee:a dog with rabies usually display some character but from what you have described the dog seems ok as long as you take anti tetanus you're good. |

That was what killed my brother. We took him to a private doctor who told us that he will give the boy anti-rabies 6 shots for #2500 each which he did, but to our surprise after one month the boy started convolging. We took him to the hospital but the doctors said what they gave him was not anti-rabies. And that the rabies has already gotten into his brain so its too late. That was how he died after three days. My advise, each shot of anti-rabies cost #10,000 and you most take six shots don't waste up to 2 weeks without starting the treatment. If you don't have money, hold the owner of the dog and let him take you to the hospital. Simple |
