Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am in Bali and went to the Sanger monkey forest. I monkey jumped on my shoulder which I found painful and the time but could not see any cuts. Later in the day I could some red marks and then a very tiny scratch. Not sure what to do. Have not had the rabies shot.
Dear patient you need immediately to take rabies shot from nearby hospital as soon as possible. Xray of the shoulder with clavicle anteroposterior view to rule out fracture. please get it done form radiology centre nearby you. Meanwhile start tab augmentin 625mg twice a day to.prwvent infection. Tab diclofenac sodium 50 mg twice a day for pain relief. If not relieved in 5 days you need to consult orthopaedic surgeon nearby your area.
