Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My dog bit the side of my knee by accident . No blood but small tear of skin. I used hydrogen peroxide and an over the counter triple antibiotic gel. The dog is up to date on all shots but I don't know if or when I ever has a tetanus shot. Do I need to see a Dr.? Thanks.
Hello As your dog got all anti rabies vaccination ,so in that sense , you are not supposed to take any anti rabies vaccine . While take a tetanus shot on the deltoid muscle by your nearby pharmacist . No need of any consultation with a doctor , according to your query. Good luck.
