You have already taken the tt injection and rabies injection. 2 month before so right now for the tt part you do not have to take it again. but for the rabies part i can say you have to look for the manufactures instruction. I mean to say which type of vaccine you have taken. there are various types of vaccine available in the market and each of which give variable duration of protection. almost all vaccine atleast give you protection for at least 2 months. so in my opinion you need not to worry.
