Rabies booster dose related

Hello,I have had completed my rabies PEP (5 dose) on 28th April 2026(5th dose) with Rabivax-S. I checked my rabies antibody level on 12th July 2026 with value of 3.21 Eu/ml. On 9th August 2026 an aggressive stray dog passed very close to my leg.So out of fear I took one booster of Rabivax-S on 10th August 202. Now I feel I took this booster shot unnecessarily.Is there any harm if I don't take second booster now?I am worried if getting so many vaccines can cause any side effects. So far no major side effects Please advise.Thanks

Inconsistent stool

The first part of my stool comes out on its own without much straining and is of normal thickness. However, after sitting for a while and applying slight pressure, the remaining stool that comes out is noticeably thinner. There is no bleeding and I do not have any significant pain or discomfort. However, when I strain more during bowel movements, a small reddish fleshy tissue protrudes slightly from the anus. It goes back inside automatically when I stop straining. I am taking 1 tsp isabgol husk 2 or 3 times in a week. A few weeks ago I visited a surgeon and the DRE was normal (within limits).

Febur 99 to 100

For the past two months, I have been running a fever ranging from 99°F to 100°F. I have undergone various tests—such as CBC, urine culture, routine urine analysis, CT scan, and tests for malaria and typhoid—and all the results came back normal. I have been tracking my temperature daily, and it consistently stays between 99°F and 100°F. What should I do next?
