Suggest Food Restrictions While On Treatment For A Dog Bite
Sir, My son had bitten by 4-5 street dogs on 22 Nov 16. He has been taken rabipur vaccination as per schedule. But in 10th day doctor has stitched the wound, which was below the ear. Is there any problem with stitching? And any food restrictions to him or not? His age is 5 hrs.

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Very sorry to hear your problem
NO worry about the stitches.
If wound is large to prevent the infection, it is better stitch.
Get in touch with your doctor for care of the stitches wound.
Do regularly dressing with betaine/savlon for better healing.
There is no any food restriction.
You can give all the types of food.
Main is complete the full dose of the vaccination.
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
