Dog Bite 7 years ago
I was bitten by a pet dog around 7 yrs ago. I am afraid that I may be infected with Rabies. Is it so ?? The only thing I fear is that I have Hydrophobia also. But it is the one where I fear large water bodies like Oceans or Beaches. No other symptom has developed. Can I now take the vaccine shots and will they be helpful ??
