Dog bite over Jeans
A dog bit me on my jeans. The Jean's didn't tear up but my skin got scratched and may be a little punctured. There was no blood but there is a scratchy red spot. This has now been more than 72 hours. There is no pain, but my skin itches. I have applied t-bac.
Should I been concerned?
