I would like to see a picture of the site of the bite and how long is the problem. It is the body's self response called inflammation which causes swelling at the site of injury. Also in long term cases there could be a growth of bacteria and infection causing swelling. There are medications which could help you reduce swelling. Consult me so that I could prescribe you.

Full vaccination under standard precautions immunity normally lasts for 3-5 years.

Consider 2 dose booster during that period beyond one year from now. It is better to be extra safe.

Human rabies immune globulin is administered only once at the begening of anti rabies prophylaxis. To previously unvaccinated persons.
This will provide immediate antibodies until the body can respond to the vaccine by active producing antibodies of its own.
If the rabies vaccine is given immediately and appropriately to someone who was bitten by a rabid animal. It is 100 % eefective.
