Today I was playing with my dog and he punctured a very invisible type small hole in my middle finger. But he is vaccinated about 20 days ago and it is very small hole and I don't feel anything. I just want to ask if I had to take injections for that cut or it is ok. I pressed my finger and very small amount of blood comes out then I washed my hand with dettol and it is fine now. What to d. Please tell!

Dear friend, you should take one tetanus vaccine. This is enough for you. If you have vaccinated your pet recently and your pet is healthy now then rabies vaccine is not required. Hope this will help you.
