Patient's question:
Consumed alcohol from Dalin Garden Pie within a week. Very anxious. Don't know if I'll die, affect vaccine effectiveness, can I get vaccinated after being scratched by a cat?Doctor's answer:
Hello. According to your description, if you are scratched by a cat and promptly disinfect the wound and receive the rabies vaccine, it is usually not a serious issue. It is recommended that if the wound has not yet healed, you should continue to disinfect it promptly to avoid bacterial infection. If you are bitten or scratched by an animal, resulting in skin damage, you should receive the rabies vaccine. Prevention is key. It is advised to go to the hospital for cleaning and disinfection of the wound and to receive the vaccine. If you are afraid of infection, you can receive rabies immunoglobulin.
