Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I was bitten by a puppy a 15 days ago in the wrist. The puppy was trying to go down but I held it. In its attempt to go down, it bit me in the wrist. There was no wound. There was no scratch. But the skin has had some form of reaction (the side where the tooth hit was raised a little). I washed it with soap and water and few minutes later, the skin was normal again.
I observed the puppy and it's still alive. It's healthy and it's showing no signs of sickness whatsoever.
The puppy did not receive any vaccination yet because it's just 2 months old. I didn't get to the doctor because I never thought it had rabies. I just want to be sure.
