High fear of rabies -
I am a person with ocd especially fear of rabies. Last day I was walking in a street and a dog passed near me , near to my hand, I pulled my hand to make sure it will not hit the dog. I didn't felt any thing at that time and I purchased some goods and came back home. But I was thinking about that incident Continously. After I reached home, I thought of some sensation in my finger and just checked it. I found a skin peeled off and was like old skin peeling off from skin. I was in panic and I washed my finger and then when I looked, there was nothing found and very minute skin lining was found from where I think the skin came off. I am very anxious and I am thinking if it is caused by the dog and is continusly thinking of taking vaccine. I do not know what to do . We can not see from where skin is peeled off, I will attach the picture. Can any one pls advice me how to know there is category 2 exposure of rabies. Can it be so small that it is not seen by our eyes. Means after skin peeled

Please take treatment as per post exposure prophylaxis. This may be an insignificant touch with the dog but since you are likely to create problems for the Doctor by lodging a complaint about mismanagement, it is better that you take a full course of prophylaxis. Then even if you get Rabies at least you will not be able to complain against the Doctor.
