What is Rabies?

It is a viral disease caused by the bite of infected animals like dogs, bats, and other wild animals. It causes an infection of the brain. It can spread through the contact with body fluid of the animal via cuts, bruises, or bites. Its symptoms can appear over months to years after exposure, but once they arise, it is most definitely fatal.

Symptoms of Rabies

They are very varied

  • Flu-like symptoms are present initially like headache, fever, body pains
  • Hallucinations
  • Confusion
  • Tingling sensation all over the body
  • Fear of water or hydrophobia
  • Difficulty swallowing
  • Agitation and irritability

 

The symptoms get progressively worse and lead to brain death eventually.

Based on whether the child gets paralysis or seizures, rabies can be of the person with paralysis or encephalitic type.

It is transmitted through the saliva of infected animals. The virus in the saliva can directly enter the nervous system or multiply in the muscle and enter the nervous tissue later.

How to Treat and Prevent Rabies?

The infection is universally fatal once the symptoms set in, and death can be within a few hours to a few days.

We should start the treatment immediately to prevent the infection from spreading. The wound is washed with water and soap, and the anti-rabies antibodies are injected in and around the wound. The bitten person is immediately given the anti-rabies vaccination.

The vaccine can be given intramuscularly, intra-dermally or under the skin.
