5 Year Old Having Itching In Face And Vomiting. Took Vaccination After Bitten By Dog. Are These Related?

My daughter is been bitten by a house dog, fully vaccine both the dog and my 5 year old daughter. I brought her to the doctor and given a fucidin to apply to her wound. And observe my daughter for fever. She is so fine for 9 days, and tonight she just told me that her whole face was aching and the head, after 1 hour she vomit, 3 times. Is this connected to the dog bite or different?

Hi,
Thanks for asking query on the HCM.
First of all let me know the condition of the dog.
If the dog is rabid usually it becomes furious ,bites number of people or animals and finally becomes lethargic and dies within 10 days of biting your daughter.
If the dog is fine and as you said both dog and your daughter got vaccinated, I do not think it is related to dog bite
Better consult pediatrician for the present symptoms.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose.
I shall be happy to answer any more queries.
