Im already taking rabies vaccine
My 4th dose is due on 27th august
Today what happened i was outside suddenly one dog came and got touched with my index finger
I got so worried
Im not sure what exactly my finger touched is it his fur/mouth/what?
Did he bite or his saliva touched what happened im confused
I saw after that in my thumb i saw one small mark it looks like hangnail types not sure .
When im touching that it stings little bit
Is it risky if his saliva touched that small dot below my thumb
Im not sure when that dot happened
