So you have 2 wounds now and one with minor bleeding. If you have multiple wounds or bleeding or if the scratch is deep, the place you are getting vaccinated might also give you a rabies immunoglobulin injection. Since it has been 3 days since your last dose of the vaccine, it would be better you showed them the wound directly. But otherwise, if your wound isn’t deep or isn’t bleeding, you can continue the current regimen after washing the wound with running water for 15 mins.
