Hey everyone! This is off topic but I got bitten by a squirrel yesterday. It bit me in the thumb. It bled a TON, but just to be safe I cleaned it. I have been cleaning it with hydrogen peroxide and have been putting on antibiotic ointment. Anything else anyone would consider applying to it? (Also, squirrels do not transfer rabies, my local E.R. was called to double check.)

Sorry to hear that

I'd say epsom salt with with warm water or hydrogen peroxide. Keep it simple

Don't apply tons of different things. Just clean it with something that will kill infection and you should be fine! Try not to cover it too much. It'll heal quick if air gets to it.
(I know.. I've experienced things like this before. XD MANY TIMES)
