A member asked:

What precautions in eating after dog bite?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Dog Bite: I know of no precautions in eating after said dog bite. However, did the dog have all its immunizations such as Rabies? Was it your dog, a neighbors dog? Was the attack provoked or unprovoked? Have you had a recent tetanus shot?

Dr Syal and another doctor agreed
