Physical wounds by my own dog bite.

2018-01-13 09:09:41
Dog bites some few small punctures but mostly just minor scratches. Hand feels heavy and one part of the small puncture feels tight if i exert strength. Should i go visit a doctor if i know all they'll do is clean the wound and dress it. I already took an anti-infection shot from my previous dog bite.
