You have to wash the site of injury with tap water and soap as early as possible. If soap is not available, the plane water will do. You may go to the nearby family physician. He will wash the site with mild soap and saline. You will be prescribed five to six injections of anti-rabies vaccine by your physician. Your physician may decide to give immunoglobulin injection to you. If the dog survive for ten days, you may be given only three injections of anti-rabies drug. Never ever take the dog bite lightly. It can be fatal mistake.
