Recently, a woman in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province shared an unusual experience on social **: she was accidentally bitten in a "confrontation" with a mouse, and in anger, she actually "bit a mouse back". This incident has attracted a lot of attention and makes us re-examine the risks behind "close encounters" with wild animals.
According to the person's description, on December 21, she accidentally encountered a rat at her home. While trying to chase away this unwelcome little guest, she accidentally gets bitten by a rat on her right hand. Angry and in pain, she made a surprising move by biting the rat's head. Afterwards, she went to the hospital in time to receive ** and was vaccinated against rabies and tetanus.
For this incident, netizens expressed shock and curiosity. Someone joked, "Does this count as 'hurting each other'?"Some people also expressed concern about the woman's behavior: "Is there a risk of infection by doing this?""In fact, contact with wild animals, especially after being bitten, does present a range of health risks.
Rodents such as rats are reservoir reservoirs for natural and zoonotic diseases. They may carry a large number of pathogens in their bodies such as viruses, bacteria, parasites, etc. These pathogens can be transmitted to humans through scratching, biting, contact with rodent feces, urine, or saliva. Therefore, once bitten by rodents such as rats, timely and correct treatment is crucial.
After being bitten, the first thing to do is to rinse the wound. Wash the wound thoroughly with running water or soapy water for about 15 minutes, washing away contaminated blood and animal saliva as much as possible. Next, gently dry the wound with a clean cotton ball or gauze. If the wound is deep or bleeding is high, it can be bandaged with a clean bandage to reduce the risk of bleeding and infection.
In addition to wound care, prompt medical attention is also crucial. The doctor will make a comprehensive assessment based on factors such as the location, size, depth and type of animal that bites the wound, and give corresponding recommendations. For example, if the bite is on a sensitive part such as a hand, or if the wound is deep and bleeding a lot, your doctor may recommend medications such as antibiotics to prevent infection. At the same time, depending on the situation, the doctor will also decide whether rabies vaccination, tetanus vaccination, etc. are required.
Returning to the case of the Wuxi woman, although her "backbite" behavior is commendable, it is not worth emulating. On the one hand, there is a great risk of infectionOn the other hand, it is also easy to irritate the animal, leading to more serious injuries. When faced with a similar situation, the best thing to do is to stay calm and try to avoid direct conflict with the animal. In the unfortunate event of a bite, the wound should be treated promptly and medical attention should be sought by following the steps above.
In conclusion, there are risks associated with "close encounters" with wild animals. When faced with similar situations, we should remain calm and respond rationally. At the same time, strengthening self-protection awareness and emergency response ability are also life skills that everyone needs to master. It is hoped that this incident can arouse more people's attention and learning about wildlife prevention and emergency response.
