So, my pet dog just bit me on my right foot near the ankle back on May 11, 2019. Do you think I need an anti-rabies shot for this? And if so, any idea how much that might cost? Just mentioning that we got our dog vaccinated around 7 years ago.

I'm really worried because my wife just swallowed a Karvol Plus capsule with water instead of inhaling the steam through her nose. Now she's experiencing a cooling sensation in her stomach, but luckily, there aren't any other symptoms at the moment. Could there be any side effects from this? What should we do next? Can you please advise?

Question

I accidentally swallowed some petrol while trying to siphon it, and it made me start coughing. Its been about 3 hours now, and I'm feeling a little dizzy with some minor cramps, though they've stopped. I'm still having these weird petrol burps. Is this normal, or should I be worried about something like methanol poisoning? How soon after swallowing petrol do serious symptoms usually show?
