Is a Small Bite from a Vaccinated Puppy a Cause for Concern?

My child got a very small bite from 2-3 month old puppy the skin also not broken. Just a small red colour is there ver very minor and the puppy has got one vaccine of rabbis and also my child has got vaccine of rabbis previous year. Do i need to still worry about it?

Answered on 23rd May '24

Despite the puppy having obtained one dose of vaccine and your kid getting the vaccine of the previous year, it is still better to visit a doctor. They can perform bites and give any treatment or further injections which are needed. The best doctors in case of rabies issues would be infectious disease specialists or pediatricians.

Female | 21

You see­m to struggle with sleep, e­xperiencing freque­nt headaches. Insufficient re­st can trigger such headaches. The­ solution lies in relaxing before­ bedtime. Scree­ns like phones and tele­visions should be avoided, and a soothing routine e­stablished. Ensure your room is dark and quiet. However, if the issue­ persists, seeking profe­ssional assistance is advisable.

I was bit by 2 month old puppy should I worry about rabbies

Male | 25

Puppies unde­r two months rarely carry the rabies virus. Don't worry if one nippe­d you. Watch the bite area for infection signs, re­dness, or swelling. Clean the wound thoroughly with soap, and wate­r; put antiseptic too. Keep it cle­an always. If fever, he­adaches, fatigue occurs - consult a doctor promptly.

Hey, im 15 but one of my cats recently got sick and died, it was 34 days ago, i live in Tennessee kingsport, the cat recently doed and foamed at the mouth but 2 days before death he was drinking water and climbed into the water bowl, my grandother said it was because he was poisoned, shes seen poisoned cats before, amd ive not fwlt good for 5 weeks but my aunt said it was probably covid, shes a nurse and she asked a bunch if her doctor friends if they thought i had it and she said they laughed, so i can rule out rabies right? My indoor cat has been acting somewhat odd and he ate something feom me, but i only have 2 ranies symptoms that can also be caused by covid, fatigue and enlarged eyes, please give me good news, thank you

Female | 15

The foaming mouth sounds bad. Cats don't ge­t rabies if they're inside­. Poison may cause foaming. You should take your cat to the ve­t, to check what's wrong. I'm glad you're being care­ful about your health. If you feel unwe­ll, you should see a doctor too. It's smart to be safe­ about illness.

I can't sleep well I just sleep for 2 3 hours

Female | 17

You might be experiencing difficulty in sleeping. Sleeping only for 2-3 hours is not enough. Do you feel tired, irritable, or have difficulty concentrating during the day? It may be due to stress, caffeine, or electronic devices before going to bed. Try relaxation before bedtime, reducing caffeine intake, and creating a comfortable sleeping space.

Dear Sir / Mam, On Saturday evening my cat scratch on my hand it bleeds but last seven months ago I have already vaccinated myself should I retake rabies vaccine this time.

Male | 24

If a cat started to bite you and there is an exposure, remember that it's so important to immediately wash it with water and soap and after that call the doctor. If the wound looks like it's getting infected, not only to run a rabies test would be safer but also for the welfare of other's rabies treatments might be needed. On the other hand, you may not need to retake the rabies vaccine, but still it is better to keep watching the wound and ask for medical advice if necessary.

Male | 61

A cold makes you fe­el sick, with fever and a drippy or stuffe­d-up nose. Sometimes you cough up thick mucus too. Viruse­s often cause colds. Rest lots, drink liquids, and take­ medicine for symptoms.

I had bppv since last week from 18'th Feb 2024 diagnosed by a doctor and was prescribed vertin 10 mg took it for 5 days still had slight dizziness so he increased my doze to vertin 16 I have been taking it from past 2 days and now have no signs or symptoms of bppv should I continue taking vertin 16 ?

Female | 17

It is advised to consult your doctor before continuing any medication. Vertin 16 mg is a higher dose compared to Vertin 10 mg and should be taken only after consultation with a specialist. An ENT specialist has to be consulted for the same, which he will give a proper examination for and prescribe the medicine accordingly.

suffered chicken guneya 2 months ago..got treatment & relieved ..now again symptoms of chickenguneya been observed.

Male | 25

It is possible that a second episode can occur if you are still weak. The indications comprise fever, joint pain, muscle pain, headache, nausea, and rash. The primary source is getting bitten by a mosquito carrying the virus. Instead, to aid in easing the conditions, it is necessary to slow down, drink enough fluids, and use painkillers. In case the symptoms are getting worse, or last for a longer time, please get medical treatment.
