2025-02-26 05:22:05
I got scratched by a stray cat in my foot. On 22nd night(this month). 23rd morning I got my antirabies vaccine and TT. Three more antirabues vaccine doses prescribed. Should I take Rabies immunoglobulin too. Attaching photo of marks for reference. I am not sure whether there was blood.

Nothing to worry  , no need to take immunoglobulins,TT is sufficient It's just a scratch  and if there is no contact with saliva there is no need for vaccine also , still as a preventive measure you took vaccine also so don't worry  continue and complete vaccine schedule for your sake
