I would go to the doctor!

Hog cuts are nasty and get infected extremely easy, it takes a powerful antibiotic to keep it in check. I don't know of the doses are the same from the vet to the doctor but it's your health, chance it if you want!

You can squirt a little genamiacin on it. Penecillian for dogs. Most people don't realize it but diesel does wonders for cuts and infection. Rub a little diesel on it 4 or 5 times a day. If a hog is what gored you then you need to be worried about swine brucelosis.

Yes hogs can get rabies. They also carry pseudo rabies which I understand does'nt affect humans but is very bad and untreatable for dogs. I could be wrong, it has been awhile since I read about it. Google it .

Yes hogs can be a carrier of rabbies. If u hav any cephlexin from the vet, it is the same as what they prescribe humans, but in a lower dosage. A couple shots of pen wont hurt either. If you have it, vigirouly clean/scrub it with betadine n then rinse with peroxide.

If is more than just a cut I would go to the doc and demand good antibiotics tell them what it was.  If you can clean it good I have had good luck with cutnheal and triple antibiotic cream. A buddy of mine had a little cut on his knee and it got infected had to go to the hospital all he would have had to do is clean it they said and it probally wouldn't have got that way

If it isn't that bad of a cut, but more than a scrape, cephelexin will be fine. If it is real bad, you need to get on clavamox (much stronger). A vet can prescribe you both of these. If you have a good vet friend, have them call it into walmart, it will be cheaper if they can't get it to you for free or at cost.

Best thing to clean with is antibacterial soap. Things like peroxide, alcohol, betadine, ext, clean good, but they kill good bacteria along with bad bacteria, which prolongs the healing process.

Good luck, hope you turn out alright. Make sure you keep a close eye on things.

oh  and do pigs get rabbies that effect humans?

From Texas Parks and Wildlife.

Do feral hogs carry disease?

In general, diseases from wild hogs do not pose a significant threat to humans; however, some diseases can be transmitted to livestock and wildlife. It is important to keep all livestock vaccinated, especially where large feral hog populations are concentrated.

Various diseases of wild hogs include pseudorabies, swine brucellosis, tuberculosis, bubonic plague, tularemia, hog cholera, foot and mouth disease, and anthrax. Internal parasites include kidney worms, stomach worms, round worms and whipworms. Liver flukes and trichinosis are also found in hogs. External parasites include dog ticks, fleas and hog lice.
What is pseudorabies and swine brucellosis?

Pseudorabies, also known as "mad itch" is a swine herpes virus that may affect the respiratory, nervous and reproductive systems. Despite its name, it is not a rabies type disease but derives its name from the symptoms similar to a rabid animal. It is transmitted primarily through breeding but may also to be transmitted through respiratory secretions of the infected animal. Infected adult swine typically develop flu-like symptoms whereas young pigs can have severe respiratory and digestive symptoms and ultimately die. Pseudorabies poses no threat to humans but may be fatal to domestic livestock and pets.

Swine Brucellosis is an infectious, bacterial, reproductive disease that can cause abortion, low conception rates and other problems. It is transmittable to humans, known as undulant fever, and causes flu-like symptoms such as fever, chills, aches and pains. It is treatable with specific antibiotics.
How do I keep from contracting diseases?

Texas Parks and Wildlife Department recommends all hunters use disposable plastic or rubber gloves when field dressing or cleaning wild swine. Bury or burn the gloves and entrails and then wash your hands with soap and hot water. And finally, make sure the meat is thoroughly cooked.

Growing up my family had shrimp boats. Any time we would get a good size cut we would pour bleach on it to kill any bacteria and prevent
it from getting infected. I've been bit bad by dogs,coons,Alligator snapping turtles, had huge catfish fins through and through my foot and always poured the bleach on it. I keep a small bottle in my first aid kit that I take with me fishing or hunting. Now with that being said I cut my hand and needed stitches. The doctor asked if I cleaned it when it happened. I told him I poured bleach on it. Man, he went ape
$hit on me. Told me to never do that.   Well, I've been doing it for 45 years and aint nothing I used it on got infected. Also was told by another doc that if a coon with rabies bites you it doesn't mean you will absolutely contract rabies. He said that if you can clean it out immediately and kill the bacteria and such as soon as your bitten you will probably have nothing to worry about. Using bleach might kill a few healthy cells but by god it it sure will kill any bacteria or live virus.

How does the burn compare to alcohol? I bet a bleach water mix would do real good just rinse it real good.
