Please consult Dr. will take detail history and will examine your child in detail. may ask you for lab test on blood urine stool etc. All information will be used to determine exact underlying cause of problem. Depending upon cause will prescribe you treatment.
Immediate stitching of bite wounds is contraindicated. It increases the trauma and increases the spread of virus into deeper tissues.
your child may need ? Wound management ? Rabies immunoglobulin ? Anti-rabies vaccine
