Answer 1

I've never had stitches so I can't really answer that. I assume the shot to numb the area probably stings but once it's numb, hopefully it shouldn't be too bad. As for the tetanus shot, I've had two, one hurt, one didn't. It's a intramuscular shot so you may be sore and bruised afterwards. The one that hurt felt like someone hit my arm with a bat. My arm was very sore and hurt whenever I moved it. But like I said my other shot didn't hurt. Guess it could depend on how the person giving the shot does it.  

Answer 2

your cut is ugly.

and out of style.

Answer 3

Yes, a tetanus shot hurts a little bit just as stitches hurt a little bit. They do not hurt nearly as much as a tetanus infection (which can kill very painfully) or a staph or strep infection (ditto). If the dog is known, you need to check about whether it has had its rabies shots. If it has not or if the dog was a stray, you need to let your doctor know so you can be treated accordingly.

Answer 4

Dog bites of the head are  extremely dangerous.Stop worrying about pains save your life.

Answer 5

the shot hurts for about 15 seconds after it is injected thats how you know its spredding through otu your body but it doesnt hurt that bad
