Bitten By Dog, Taken Rabipur Injection, Headache. Precautions?
Last night, I was bitten by stray dog on hips, actually I am not sure wether it bite me or scrached my with paw. This morning I have taken anti-teternous & Rabipura injection , and Rabipura course will be of 5. Presently I am having slight head-ache, after taking coffee I am feeling better. Can you please advice me any other precaution to be taken.

Hi friend
Welcome to Health Care Magic
You are intelligent indeed - to have started the course of injection, on suspicion itself.
Rabies is preventable - not curable,
You don't need to do anything more.
See your doctor, if the headache recurs or becomes worse.
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
