Braces. He may put up a fuss at first, but when he ends up with a great smile he'll thank you.



Insane M gave you a good answer but guess what?, you can't treat the bite yourself well enough. All Animal bites have germs and bacteria in them from their teeth, saliva and whatever they ate last. Get yourself to a clinic right away and do all the steps Insane M gave you before you get to the doctor's office, clinic or house. (I guess you are in a rural setting considering you were near a Kangaroo.) Expect not only to get a tetanus shot to avoid getting rabies and lockjaw but also to get a antibacterial injection. Go right away. Do not delay. The longer those germs are in your bloodstream the sooner you will get seriously sick. And God Bless your healing too.

Medical Knowledge, Experience (unfortunately) and I am a mom.



first you need to get it washed out, with either cold water, or saline solution.

then use an anti septic on it, if it's bleeding, apply pressure with a clean towel, bandage, gauze pad, or you could use a sanitary towel or a wad of tissue paper.

apply a dressing on the wound and keep it dry until it has healed.

if you haven't had a tetanus injection in the past, you need to get one. you could get the wound treated at hospital or by a doctor when you go to get a tetanus shot.



Put a muzzle on the bad kangaroo. Wasn't that the problem? Oh, take your kangaroo to the orthodontist to see what can be done about its bad bite.



are you joking ? lol
