Suddenly there are too many patients on Practo whose wounds have been licked by cows.
It is quite unusual because cows don't lick the owners.
However I want to clarify one thing that as per the information on the Internet, cows can get Rabies if they are bitten by a Ravid dog. The saliva of a Rabid cow will have Rabies virus. But till date not even a single case of Rabies has been reported from anywhere in the World where Rabies was transmitted by the cow to human beings (by licking their wounds).
And what are the human beings doing ? Can't they protect themselves even from a cow ?

Most probably due to vaccine, but nothing serious. Don’t skip the vaccine doses.
