Check past dog bite or scratch
Around 20 days ago, I had an encounter with a stray dog. I don’t remember any pain, bleeding, or visible wound, but I’m now anxious and unsure whether I was scratched or bitten. Is there any test or skin examination that can help detect old wounds or scratches after this much time? I want to know how to properly examine my body or if any doctor can help confirm whether exposure happened. Please guide me on the right steps and which specialist I should consult to clear this confusion. I just want peace of mind and proper medical advice.

Need help checking for dog bite
I had an encounter with stray dogs around 20 days ago during my daily walk. They came close, and I was scared and not fully aware of what happened. I don’t remember any pain, bleeding, or visible wounds, but now I’m overthinking whether I was scratched or bitten. I also want to know if there is any medical test or skin examination to detect old wounds, scratches, or bite marks. I find it hard to trust my own body check due to anxiety. Please guide me on how to confirm this and which doctor I should consult for clarity.

Contamination with bat urine
I am from Jalpaiguri. Yesterday when I stroll around the street with my 8 year old daughter, a fruit bat pee on my cheek, shoulder, clothes. But I am not sure about my daughter's contamination. After about 1.5 hours I washed the area with soap water but not the hair. Now I am afraid about the diseases. Specially nipah virus contamination. How likely it is important for me and my daughter?
