Human Bite? how infectious is it?!
Question:
Human Bite? how infectious is it?
I had a human bite from a friendly brawl (fight) with my friend over the right ribs. there was some blood (may be 2 drops) and two marks of bite ie teeth, but after 12 hours now there is no swelling, but light pain.
do i need to go to doctor, will it turn into infection. Do i need tetanus shot?
and the teeth did not come in direct contact with my skin. I had my cotton polo shirt so i guess its not that serious as there is no direct contact with the teeth which can have bacteria to cause infecitons.
What are your thoughts ??

Well, as long as he's not a zombie I would think you'd be okay. OR a vampire, but then again he probably would have bitten your neck.
