Doubtful rabies exposer

2019-03-08 19:58:38
Hello sir 10 days ago a stray dog passed near to me and suddenly comes back to me and returned back. I didn't feel any bite or scratch at that time. At home I checked my leg next day I saw a little wound size about a pen point but there was no pain or swelling and nearby area was normal. Because of doubt I went to a govt hospital for vaccination after 10 days of that incident. They gave me first shot of vaccine. One year ago I took 4 shots of vaccine in feb 2018 due to non exposure. Is there any issue to take vaccination after 10 days. Is it late in vaccination. Thank you in advance

Relax you ll be fine. Complete the vaccination course though. If you already took vaccine last year, you will already be having antibodies
