Dog bite and now early symptoms of rabis
I got bit by a pet dog 3 weeks ago. No blood but it broke skin. I've had flu like symptoms (sore throat, stuffy nose etc), trouble breathing and the leg the dog bit me in has felt numb and dead since yesterday evening. My mouth is also cut at the back and i keep biting my jaw by mistake. I'm worried I have rabies or tetanus.

Thanks for the question, both rabies and tetanus have symptoms from days to weeks after the first bite, better to consult your physician.
