What Causes Foaming At The Mouth?

hi recently i met a man that was foaming at the mouth while talking. not sure if he was talking intensely. he for some reason stopped me and talked to me for a while and shook my hand (no visible spitting or anything while i was talking to him) and i may or may not have touched my eyes/mouth/nose while wiping sweat. Is this a reason to be worried for rabies or anything? sorry if i m being paranoid but sources online giving mixed views. thanks for your time! also sorry i dont have money to pay for this but is there still any way i can get an answer :/

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

No need to worry. Rabies patients will not be wandering in street. They are usually sick. The person you met may have some other issues other than rabies.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
