Rabies OCD

2023-12-15 12:05:58
I am from India, on 2rd October  when I was sleeping at night with bedsheet on me a bat entered my room , after realising I have applied detol on allover me .. and had went to doctor immediately but he denied to give me any rabies vaccine saying it is not need it's been 10weeks and I have visited 6different doctors but all of them had said no need for PEP . But I am too afraid of what if I have rabies now so if any normal thing happens with me like runny nose,acidity negative thoughts starts coming to my mind.. what should I do and is there still any reason for me to fear the worst case(rabies)?

Actually the doctor wouldn't have vaccinated u that time beco u wouldn't have got any bite injury,. Mostly rabies spreads due to bite of an rabid infected animal.. I feel more than u afraid for rabies, u should check for the OCD and consult a doctor for it... Becoz in future u may start to get fear for many things like this due to OCD.. Thank you .

There is nothing to worry. Afterall the bat did not bite you . You cannot have rabies . Additionally , bats in India are fruit bats, they don't spread rabies

You don't need vaccination and there is no reason to fear the worst case scenario. Indian bat spotting does not call for vaccination. Please be assured

Bats in Indian are fruit bats. They won't spread rabies. Only vampire bats spread rabies. Vampire bats are not in our country. They are seen only in America. So no need to worry.
