Husband mauled by a wild animal
136 Answers
I need advice asap, my husband was walking the dog earlier when he said he heard a whimpering coming from a hole in the ground as if a small animal was hurt so he shined his torch down the hole and couldn't see anything, he then put his arm down the hole and was viciously attacked. His dog was trying to get at the animal whilst he was being attacked which then made the animal run up my husbands arm and onto his face and head where it further mauled him until he fell and the animal escaped chased by the dog.
My husband doesn't know what the animal was as it was dark and he dropped his torch in the commotion but said it was small, furry with sharp teeth and claws and cat sized.
The nearest hospital's on the mainland 15 miles away and the sea's rough today so we can't take the boatso we'll have to go to the doctor who comes in by boat every morning at 10am so i've cleaned his wounds with soap and water and am about to dress them and want to know whether it would be better to use vinegar or lemon juice or bicarb to disinfect his wounds as that's all we have until we do our months shopping on monday.
Which is the best to use?

Dtcrosswordfan i am certainly not urinating on my husbands wound as we are neither on a mountain nor are his wounds life threatening to the point only urine will save him.
As i said earlier i have bicarb, white malt vinegar and lemon juice. I also have bleach and cleaning products but guess the chemicals would burn him and may cause a worse wound?
