⚠️FAKE ZOMBIE BITE⚠️

Hi! I have a followup on your bite info. What about human bites? My MC is attacked by someone who thinks they’re a zombie (has been in the wild for a while) and gnawed on in the neck/shoulder. I know that human mouths are nasty. They’re in an encampment that will have medical care. Will he need antibiotics along with bandages/stitches? If he’s kidnapped out of the hospital would he need specialized care beyond changing bandages, finishing antibiotics, etc? Thank you so much, you are AWESOME!

I realized my previous ask may not have been clear (darn character limits!) the person doing the biting thinks they're a zombie, but is a human (albeit one that has been gnawing on rats and bunnyrabbits for a while). Thank you again for being so awesome!

Hey there! You’re pretty awesome too!!

So the first thing is that this character won’t be getting stitches right away. Bite wounds are usually left open so that the bacteria in the wound have somewhere to drain. There’ll be dressings but the wound will be left open for the first 72 hours, then may be closed with sutures.

This isn’t terribly different from a dog bite (except humans are grosser). The wounds will be cleaned, and may be cleaned every day for a little while. Antibiotics may be given prophylactically if the wounds had to be closed immediately for some reason.

But unless the wound gets infected, they may not even need antibiotics! If the wound gets hot, red, swollen, and tender, with a purulent discharge (pus), then yeah, definitely they need antibiotics, but otherwise they’ll just be allowed to heal on their own.

As for after care, as long as their antibiotics finish out, it’s mostly changing bandages (like you said).

Best of luck!!
