Do you know who is afraid of dogs? They may have once bitten, and have
developed a called "Cynophobia" fear. A sad fear, because according to the 2007
American pet owners and demographic information, only in the United States there
are about 720000 dogs. But, because they are seen as "man's best friend", you
can expect to see a wherever and whenever.
The injured dog bites are one of
the most common causes in the United States, not only in the adult children, but
also. According to estimates, nearly 5000000 Americans are bitten by every year
800000 people in need of medical attention; the 368000 was sent to the emergency
room, sadly, about 20 people died.
This shows that, we should take care of
our dog, still need to be careful. They may be domesticated, but they are still
dogs, provoke, bite. They are the property, and protect their young and personal
belongings, so you want to be careful when they, especially their pups. But, how
do you do, if you are bitten?
Of course, first aid - allows a bleeding wound,
if it is not excessive bleeding, and rinse with water. Wash the wound thoroughly
with soap, about 5 minutes, let the water running through it again. With dry
then apply iodine or hydrogen peroxide. These are painless way to kill bacteria,
prevent infection. Allow drugs, natural air, cover the wound with a sterile
bandage or gauze pad. After that, consult a doctor for further examination and
observation. Determination of the dog - this is a very important step, because
signs of dog rabies, must comply with the. If a dog is a dog, you are likely to
experience a series of injection for prevention of rabies. A painful process,
but much better than death.
