Soft tissue infection and delayed wound healing due to neglected animal bite
Öz
One of the reasons of skin and soft tissue infections are infections due to animal bites. People who live in places where wild animals are found or travelers visiting these places are more likely under the risk of animal bites. These people should be careful about animal biting and after exposure should take appropriate treatment and use regularly. Interruption of treatment and poor wound cause to soft tissue infections.
We aim to present this soft tissue infections due to animal bites for those who are living in areas where the wild animal population is and that could create risk for travelers to those area.
In this case, we presented a seven years old child with a monkey bite and his delayed wound recovery due to insufficient public health conditions.
