Common Injuries from Dog Bite
Dog bites can result in various injuries, from minor to severe.
Here are some examples of dog bite injuries that are most common:
- Puncture wounds: A puncture wound is a scar caused by a dog’s teeth breaking through the victim’s skin. A puncture wound can damage tendons, nerves, and even bone.
- Infections: A dog bite carries a serious risk of infection as bacteria is transferred from the dog’s mouth into the wound. A dog bite infection can require antibiotic treatment or hospitalization.
- Scars: Dog bites often physically scar the victim, sometimes permanently.
- Emotional trauma: In addition to physical scarring, dog bites can leave emotional scars as well. Many dog bite victims suffer from PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder), leading to anxiety, flashbacks, and nightmares.
