Frequently Asked Questions

Bite wounds are typically classified based on their depth and severity, ranging from superficial scratches to deep puncture wounds that can affect muscles and organs.

Managing a bite wound involves cleaning the wound, applying a sterile dressing, and preventing infection. Antibiotics and tetanus shots may be necessary depending on the severity.

The healing time for bite wounds varies depending on their severity. Superficial wounds can heal in a few days to weeks, while deeper wounds may take longer, requiring more intensive care.

Wounds generally heal faster when covered with the appropriate sterile dressings. Keeping the wound protected from bacteria while allowing it to remain moist speeds up healing.

After a traumatic injury, the body initiates a healing process that involves inflammation, clotting, tissue regeneration, and scar formation. Proper wound care is essential to ensure this process happens efficiently and without complications.
