Can I get rabies if a dog licks my fingernail? Can the bacteria of rabies pass through the gap between my fingernail and skin?

While me and my friend were on a vacation in western ghats , in a forest a stray bull came near us . At first we were petting it then it licked an open wound on my friends hand. Should we take some medicine or consult a doctor because on searching online we got to know that even cattle can spread rabies. Sh6my friend take vaccine? To make matter complicated we can't even observe the cattle for 10 days as this incident occurred in a forest Please help us out

I have been posting about my dog’s diarrhea with blood, which has stopped . However, this morning I noticed that there was no blood in her stool, but today night the rest of her stool is normal, but after she pooped, I saw one drop of blood and some mild stain on her anus. This is the second day of treatment...I don’t know if she is getting better or worse. I need your advice dr on what to do next... and I am grateful to all doctors 🙏🏻
