Based on what you’ve described, this is NOT rabies. Let me be very clear and reassuring here. • You completed a full intradermal rabies vaccination course on 18 October from a government hospital. • On 30 December, you had a minor scratch and then received booster doses (Day 0 and Day 3) on 5 Jan and 8 Jan. • Even though there was a 7-day delay, this does NOT reduce protection in someone who is already fully vaccinated. The pricking/tingling sensation near the throat or submandibular area that comes and goes is not a rabies symptom. Rabies symptoms do not fluctuate, do not come as mild tingling for days, and do not start like this in a vaccinated person. This sensation is most consistent with: • Anxiety-related nerve hypersensitivity • Muscle tension or cervical/neck nerve irritation • Submandibular salivary gland irritation • Stress-induced paresthesia (very common in people worried about rabies) Rabies pain is severe, progressive, and rapidly worsening, not intermittent needle-like sensations for 10 days.

You are already protected from rabies as you are completed vaccination in October. The symptoms you mentioned (pricking pain in throat) are not at all related to rabies , it may be due to anxiety or mild throat infection

You dont be anxious about the disease since you are vaccinated and have also taken booster doses either. The complaints you have now could be due to common cold or allergies.You can have conservative management like saline gargle,steam inhalation and all before taking medications.

See a physician or neuro for the same.

You are protected from rabies. Get complete blood count done,  share results Drink warm fluids, take voveran 50mg one  morning and one evening for 3 days after meals, tab mondeslor one daily  for 5 days.

Since you had completed a full intradermal rabies vaccination in October, you were already protected when the new scratch happened in December, and the 2 booster doses you received in January further strengthened that protection even though they were slightly delayed. The intermittent pricking or tingling sensation in the throat or submandibular area is not how rabies presents and is much more consistent with anxiety-related nerve irritation, muscle tension, or minor local inflammation rather than rabies.

  This is not at all related to rabies. Consult superspecialist like ent. Till than Betadine gargle add 3ml solution in hot to warm water gargle it before meals two times.   Zerodol sp3 times a day after food for five days.  Cefexim o200 two times after food for five days. Montek lc one at night after dinner for 5days.
