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.
I was bitten by my domestic cat.it is not vaccinated. There was no blood but bite mark is there and skin has been scratched a bit. It has been almost three hours. Since its night right now, I didn t go to the doctor. Can I do so in the morning. Please help
Just wash the area well with soap and water. You can wait till morning, but we have to start rabies vaccine in the morning as the cat is not vaccinated and there is scratches.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
