Regarding rabies vaccine
Hello doctors, I hope you are all doing fine. Before a week when I went for a trip I was walking outside at night. At that time I encountered few stray dogs one of the dogs played with me he nibbled my calves. Now I'm afraid whether I should take vaccine or not. I don't have any injury or scrap. Infact that nibble was a playful gesture I didn't even felt the pressure on my calves when it nibbled, I just felt the dogs teeth. My legs were also covered by my pants and I don't see any holes on my pants either. Should I take the vaccine now?
Thank you for your time on reading this!
