Question
So, yesterday I was bitten by a rat on my thumb, and I noticed some blood coming from it but it stopped by itself after a little while. I washed my hands with soap and water after that. I went to get a tetanus shot and an anti-rabies injection in my butt. But now the doctor told me I need to get two more rabies injections. What should I do? Should I be worried?
