Does a bleeding hamster bite need a vaccine?

Whether you need a vaccine for a bleeding hamster bite depends on the condition of the wound. If the bite is minor and does not cause infection, you can treat the wound on your own and do not need to get vaccinated. However, if the bite wound is deeper or if you were bitten by a wild hamster, it is recommended that you get vaccinated against tetanus as soon as possible. Meanwhile, if symptoms such as fever, headache, back pain, orbital pain, etc. occur after being bitten, it may be other serious problems, and you need to seek medical attention in time.
