I got a tetanus shot about 36-37 hours after a minor injury. A few people mentioned that it should've been given within 24 hours of getting hurt. I'm worried and not sure what I should do now. Could you advise me on whether I'm still protected or if there's anything else I should be doing?

I've been using dolo 650 for my fever, but it doesn't seem to be working. Are there any other fever medicines you would suggest?
The 0.3ml anti-rabies booster dose provides immunity for at least 2-5 years, and possibly up to 10 years. Since you received the booster dose on January 9 and 12, you should still have adequate immunity. Given the cat bite on January 28, you are likely protected against rabies. However, it's essential to consult your doctor or a medical professional for guidance. They may recommend post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) or monitoring, depending on the severity of the bite and other factors. Seek attention immediately to ensure your safety.
