Dogs with broken skin need to use saline to flush the wound and squeeze out the blood from the wound. Disinfection with iodophor is required to prevent inflammation, redness and swelling of the wound caused by infected germs. If the broken skin is large, it needs to be bandaged. If the area is small, then it can be allowed to heal on its own. In addition, if the bite is due to another animal, it is best to consult a doctor for the appropriate treatment to prevent rabies infection.
