Cat bite & scratches

2017-09-23 18:10:26
I had dog bite 4 years & 3 months ( 4.25 years ) back. Took Immune globulin & full course of Rabies vaccine under medical supervision. 12 days back , I had Cat bite & scratches on my leg ( calf ) in Morocco. Showed to Doctors there, but, they just told me to wash the wounds properly & apply antiseptic cream. Came back to India two days back & consulted Doctor. He gave me TT injection & Antibiotics. But, due to Rabies being scary , I consulted other Doctors, for second opinion. pl advice
