The Negative Impact Of dogs on Humans

edit

The coexistence of humans and dogs, while beneficial, also carries risks, especially with stray dogs. Apart from bites, interactions with dogs can transmit diseases and cause psychological distress. Vulnerable groups like children and the elderly are particularly susceptible. Dog Bites lead to tissue damage and infections, with rabies and tetanus posing significant risks if untreated. Education for dog owners helps reduce bites, but stray dogs remain a concern. Prompt wound management and rabies prophylaxis are crucial for mitigating health risks. Psychological support may be necessary for those affected. Overall, addressing these issues can minimize negative impacts on human health.[1]
