Hi, greetings. I feel you seem to be somewhat intrigued about rabies. Relax - you have already taken a lot of vaccination in few years back - so you have high immunity against rabies already. The kind of exposure that you have had makes the chances of you developing rabies almost next to nil. So i dont think you need to worry too much about it. just keep your wound clean. Further queries may be sent on follow up messaging.Warm regards, Dr Govind Suresh Mittal
