[|Human|] Hi. I have been scratch by my dogs nail a few months. It s already healed and i haven t gone to a doctor and have not taken anti rabies shot. Do I need to take anti rabies after a few months later? How will this affect my health?What are the things i need to do to prevent unwanted health problems?
[|AI|]  Hello thanks for asking us. From the information given it seems like that nothing happened to your dog. So you do not need anti rabies shot. But There are cases where rabies has set in after 2 years of bite. This period basically depends on the site of bite, severity of bite, which animal has bitten and the amount of viral load. The incubation period of rabies is 2 months to 2 years. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. Wishing you good health.
