i got a small wound on my leg.. same size as a grain of a rice... but around the wound.. it is swelling.. i dont remember when did my dogs scratch me... 3 of dem are immunize already.. but the other one isnt... is swelling around the wound a sign of rabies?... i had tetanus toxoid before.. but i did not took anti rabies vacine.. do i have to take a shot of anti rabies too?
HIT hanks for posting your query to Chat Doctor .  I presume the other dog which is not immunized is your pet dog and not a stray dog. If it's your pet dog and you can observe the dog for 10 days and within this 10 days nothing abnormal (including death of dog) happens then there is no need of Rabies Vaccine. But if the dog starts behaving abnormally, or it dies then you need to get vaccine.  But if you can't watch the dog or its stray dog then better you get the rabies vaccine. Any clarifications or Queries feel free to ask. Happy to help you.  Regards.
