Reports routine, charges seldom in dog-bite cases in metro area
The patient was, meanwhile, referred to Rajindra Hospital in Patiala after he was confirmed to be suffering from rabies. Says Dr Avinash Jindal, specialist physician who treated the patient Gurdiyal Singh at Civil Hospital: "The patient was brought to our hospital yesterday (Friday) in the emergency after he got aggressive. He was first checked by the psychiatrist as he reported of severe aggression symptoms. This morning, while we were checking him, he got more aggressive and started running after people there. He, in fact, bit a 25-year-old patient at the hospital. When I took his history, his attendant told me that he was bitten by a stray dog about 10 days ago. Suspecting him to be suffering from hydrophobia, we did a simple test and brought water in front of the patient. He got convulsions and suffered from laryngeal spasms, thus confirming that he indeed is suffering from rabies.
