A member asked:
I was bite in the face by a german shepherd on 1/1/21 at work. luckily, i was wearing a thick mask so i only needed two stitches but my lower lip has had a ball in it ever since my swelling went down. is it normal for scar tissue to be spherical?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The scar at the site of puncture from the tooth of a dog could appear to be spherical. It should shrink with time. I trust that you discussed the need for rabies vaccine with your doctor.
