If there was bleeding (even a drop) at the site of wound/bite, you should take ars (immunoglobulin)-in the wound.
But if there was no bleeding, only ars on days 0,3,7,28 is enough.
Also tt if not taken in 3 months.

Incubation period of Rabies can be any time between 10-90 days. You should have taken ARV immediately after the dog bite. It is now late. Observe the dog. If it has died within 10 days, take ARV immediately. However you can take 2 post exposure vaccinenow. Consult doctor for further advice.

Hello,
Yes rabies virus can be seen in vaginal fluids if she is symptomatic , however if vaccination has been taken then she should not be shedding virus. You should nevertheless take vaccination to be on a preventive side.

No need to take if it had occurred within the dosing schedule. But in your case it is recommended to take 2 booster doses.

Dear lybrate-user there is no cure for rabies, only way is prevention by taking rabies vaccination.
Kindly vaccinate with 5 doses day 1, 3, 7, 14, 28.
Human rabies immunoglobulin should also be taken as dog in not vaccinated.
Kindly go to your nearest doctor and he will do the needful

Better not to give. Better to give either on the same day or 4 weeks apart for the maximal effect.

You should yourself know by now if it is painless. Anyway it is not painless. Pain is a subjective phenomenon, experienced with different grades of severity by different babies.
