Bitten or scratched by an animal abroad? Make a clear phrase and help card for a doctor.

Answer a few simple questions. BiteHelp creates a clear card in an available language for the place where you are seeking care. If that language is unavailable, the card is shown in English.

Wash the wound now

Use soap and plenty of running water for at least 15 minutes. Then get medical advice as soon as possible. Do not wait until the card is finished.

Seek urgent medical care immediately if there is heavy bleeding, a serious injury, trouble breathing, or loss of consciousness.

Use BiteHelp as a communication aid—not as a diagnosis

BiteHelp can help you explain what happened. It cannot assess your individual risk or prescribe treatment.

  • AI assistance was used while compiling parts of the wording and sources.
  • A clinician must make treatment decisions.
  • Clinic opening hours and medicine availability can change.
  • Map results are not verified.

Make a help card

Not sure? Choose “I don’t know.”

Where it happened

Record the place of exposure separately from the place where you are seeking care.

This appears exactly as typed on the doctor card. Use a spelling the local clinician can recognise.
This is used for nearby-care searches.If you use location, your coordinates are sent once to a location service to identify the country. They are not added to the card.
Language for the doctor card
Chosen automatically from the country where you are seeking care. An English companion copy is also shown.

What you have already received

Your answers stay on this device. BiteHelp does not ask for your name, passport number, or contact details.

Your help card will appear here

Fill in what you know. It is fine to choose “I don’t know.”

Communication aid only. Verify all details and follow current local medical guidance.

Nearby-care results are a third-party map search and do not confirm treatment availability.

Medical advice you can trace

The first-aid messages follow current WHO rabies guidance and CDC guidance for possible macaque exposure.

Read the medical sources

When you cannot find the words, show the facts.

BiteHelp helps you explain the exposure clearly. A doctor or public-health professional must still decide what care you need.

1

Say what happened

Record where the contact happened, the animal, what it did, the wound, and any care already received.

2

Show it or play it

The card is shown in the available language selected for the place where you are seeking care. An English companion copy is also shown for cross-checking.

Get medical care

Search for nearby care and keep a written record of any vaccine you receive.
