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.
Hello i am from Bangladesh. around 1 month earlier i adopted a kitten from an acquaintance who ensured me she was never out of his home. however she is very aggressive and playful. she often playfully bites me but never bleeds. once/twice she scratched me accidentally. i have given her vaccine 10 days ago. she seems okay. but i am constantly worrying about rabies. i have difficulty swallowing spit (no problem with food and water), headache, eyelid twitching and diarrhea. i had consulted a doctor here. he gave me antibiotics. can you please advise?
Scratch before 10 days and vomiting plus diarrhoea may not be related to rabies. Rabies is deadly condition usually require intensive care unit admission. Hydrophobia is most common symptom in rabies. Don't worry. simple antibiotics will help you.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Nirav Nimavat, General & Family Physician
