I'm currently travelling and I was bitten by monkey about an hour ago, I could reach hospital only after 45 minutes of bite. Doctor gave TT & ARV injections and instructed to take 3 more doses in the next 2 months. After getting back to the room I have washed the bitten area with dettol soap. Is there anything else I have to do.. Pls suggest. It's paining and burning sensation is there.
