Hy Sir... My Bitch Had Bitten Me Before 5 Year
Question: Hy sir... My bitch had bitten me before 5 year ago I took 3 vaccine.... Again after 1.5 year she had bite me during feeding then I took 2 vaccine with 1 tetanus and she was once vaccinated... bitch was alive 2.5 year after bite in front of me and also gave birth by stray dog... May be still she was alive because we left her another place... Do I have a risk of rabies..sometimes I feel light burn and light pain around bite site... Please suggest I am very scared.. Can I take remaining vaccine.
Brief Answer:
No need for vaccination
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your query.
If you are sure the bitch was not rabid and lived further, I would not recommend any more vaccination.
the burn and light pain could be a side effect of the wound per say. A healing wound with scar developed can have such feeling around.
Need not worry.
Wish you good health.
