Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Dear Sir, I live in India.I was bitten by a neighbour's pet dog yesterday. Its a mixed breed. Should I get the vaccine today or is it fine to take it tomorrow. 24 hours have passed since the incident. The bite did not instill blood, but just a scratch was there on my hand.
Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic. Please take vaccine today itself and I suggest you take all doses even though the dog is a domestic one and a vaccinated animal. Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health. Dr. Sumanth MBBS., DCH., DNB (Paed).,
