He bit me quite lot of time in 2-3 years and I always took rabies vaccination.. My dog for god sake never had any rabies symptoms But my lip is swollen and the headbutt left a scar and it bleeded a little is there any risk? I have uploaded a picture for better view Kindly have a look at picture please His face was under blanket Does it look like bite or headbutt ? Kindly advice thank you all

Although your dog is vaccinated, it's still recommended you to take rabies vaccination as a preventive measure. WHO also recommends taking vaccination even if got bitten by vaccinated dog.

You need to get opinion on immunoglobulin shots from your physician.  As for the vaccination, you are currently under the middle of the schedule so follow it and finish the vaccination
