Here they do say that it helps but it is better to go to the hospital to have anti rabies immediately.

Garlic is known as antiseptic and proven a good herbal medicine.
But you need to see your doctor also.
Rabies should be treated properly depending on which part of your body you are bitten.

Oh okay, the dog is baby dog and not bog dog.But some said said just to go doctor for safety.I think it is helpful to use garrlic and also still go doctor..it is painful when you put garlic on the part of dog bite.

I am hearing this for the first time friend, garlic has so many medicinal properties, it may work for dog bite, you know rabies due to dog bite is a dangerous disease, it is best to take full course of injections, than one may take garlic..
Thanks for sharing
Best of luck.

I have tried it once when i was still a kid and a dog bite me. My grandma told me to rub or put a garlic on the wound. I forgot how it feels but I guess it gives a burning feeling. Garlic is said to be an antiseptic but I haven't read much information about it. Since then I never tried using it again for fear that it might not really help at all, sometimes it's best to go to the doctor coz we don't whether a dog has rabies.

In medical field,when you're beaten by the dog or animals with rabies. The first thing you should is to wash it immediately with water then rinse it thoroughly with soup on it.After that determine which part of the body is being affected because the rabies is spreading soo fast through out the nervous system.When bite is in lower part or below the waist,It can be prevented,you should be able to keep it in lower position below the level of the heart so that it will not reach the brain.
