How can you shower with dog bites?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dog bite wound care: You can shower and wet your dog bite anytime... And in fact i would encourage it if you already haven't done so. I hope you have already healed and that your scars are acceptable. If not, you can always see a plastic surgeon in consideration of scar revisions.
