Hello,Welcome to icliniq.com.I understand your concern.If a dog scratches or bites you, you should get vaccinated. As you have a history of exposure (bites or scratches), it is better to get the vaccine for post-exposure treatment. Post-exposure treatment consists of five injections by intramuscular route on day 0, three, seven, 14, and 28.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. As you have recurrent infection, I would suggest to do investigations first. Currently, I suggest tablet Amoxicillin plus Clavulanic acid (Co-Amoxiclav) 625 mg three times a day for seven days. .
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. If your leg is swelling like when you press your finger on your leg and see pushing marks of your finger (use thumb) then there is a real need for emergency care and treatment. If your leg swelling is also associated with swelling of the body and face then it needs urgent care. Please go to your nearest hospital to have better treatment. Thank you and take care.
