Bitten By Dog. Had Anti Rabies And Anti Tetanus Shot. Had Inflamed Throat And Choked. Worried. What To Do?

Hello Doc, 10 days ago my 2 dogs were fighting as I went close to separate them my other dog accidentally bit me,I got 8 stitches near my ankle,i had the anti rabies and anti tetanus shot after 3 days and on the next day when I had my breakfast I feel like I lost my appetite,when the doctor checked me he said I have an inflamed throat and I lost 3 kilos for just a week because of that,I felt anxious for 5 days but now it s all gone,it s been 10 days now and my dog is doing fine my appetite went back but still i have the thinking that i will get choke when i swallow my food,im just worried because after 10 days i got a sore throat and I read that the first sign that you are infected by a rabies is sore throat,now im worried again but my dog is doing fine.Looking forward for your reply.Thank you and God Bless.

Hi
Thanks for writing to health care magic.
If your dog is doing fine after 10 days
its fine
But complete the anti rabies injections (usually 5 over one month )
Wishing you speedy recovery
Regards
Dr Arun
