I'm a bit worried because my guinea pig bit me on the finger about 10 days ago, but there wasn't any blood drawn. I've had a pretty thorough vaccination history with anti-rabies shots, like 5 full doses of Abhayrab in January 2021, 2 booster doses in August 2021, and another booster of Rabipur in September 2021. Now I'm wondering if I should get another booster dose? My guinea pig seems to be just fine and alive after these 10 days, but should I still be concerned?

Any advice?

I've got a sore throat that I'm pretty sure is an infection, and my tonsils are kind of swollen too. I've been coughing a bit, but there's no fever. Should I be worried about this, or is there something I should be doing to feel better?

Consider consulting a primary care physician or an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist for a proper evaluation, as your symptoms suggest a possible viral or bacterial throat infection, and they may prescribe antibiotics if necessary, or recommend symptom-relieving measures such as gargling with salt water, using a humidifier, and taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen.
