<human>: I got a dog bite last thursday on mty inner right thigh. The puncture wounds have healed nicely. I had antitetness injection and antibiotic. The bruising is terrible and now there is swelling with fluid in the middle, it is also starting to itch. Should I worry?
<bot>: Thanks for asking in Chat Doctor Forum In Short: You have to take anti-rabies injection. Explanation: By your question it is clear that you had a dog bite to your thigh with injury. You have taken anti-tetanus and antibiotic, but not anti-rabies injection course.  In my opinion, your swelling will come down after completion of antibiotic course and if you take anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor.  I am worried because you have not taken anti-rabies vaccine.  So, visit a doctor and take antirabies vaccination along with prescription for your wound infection.
