Since the monkey's teeth touched your skin without blood, the risk of rabies transmission is low but not zero.
Recommendation
- Monitor for symptoms: Watch for signs of rabies, such as fever, headache, or numbnesstingling around the wound.
- Consult a doctor: Visit a doctor or a hospital immediately to assess the risk and determine if post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is necessary.
- PEP might be recommended: Depending on the doctor's assessment, you might receive rabies immunoglobulin and a series of rabies vaccinations as a precautionary measure.
TT injection: Since you've already taken the TT (tetanus toxoid) injection, you're protected against tetanus.

my dad had diabetes and high bp, then he had surgery but got 3 bp attacks in the last 15 days. how do we manage his medicines now - when should we give them and what dosage would be right?
It's crucial to consult with your dad's doctor or a pharmacist to adjust his medication regimen, given his recent surgery and blood pressure fluctuations. It's likely that the surgery and anesthesia may have temporarily impacted his blood pressure, but the recurrence of attacks warrants attention. The doctor will need to assess the cause of the attacks (whether related to surgery, medications, or other factors) and adjust the dosage or type of medication accordingly. It's also important to ensure he is following a healthy lifestyle (diet, exercise, stress management) to help manage both diabetes and hypertension
