SECTION IX
ANIMAL BITES
ANIMAL BITES CARRY A
HIGH RISK OF INFECTION
AND REQUIRE PROFESSIONAL
ATTENTION PROMPTLY!
Infection may develop hours, or days,
after an animal bite. Signs and symptoms
of infection are pain & tenderness at the
wound site, redness, heat, swelling, pus
at the wound site, red streaks in the skin
around the wound and possible swollen
glands closest to the wound.
First aid care for animal bites includes
washing the wound well with soap and
water, if there is no heavy
bleeding. Then cover the wound and seek
professional attention. A serious wound
should be cleaned only by
trained medical personnel.
