My dog bit my pinky finger last night and it was bleeding and still is intermittently. He had a rabies shot. The wound is about 1/2 in length along the side of my nail bed. I don t know how deep because it s hard to see without making wound worse. Do I need to see a doctor?
Hello! Good to see you on Chat Doctor. I am Chat Doctor.  I will be guiding you for your concern. In case of dog bite we first need to confirm rabies vaccination status of dog which is okay in your case. But this is not the only concern. If I will be your treating doctor than I would advise following things.1) Your tetanus vaccination status must be confirmed. If you have not taken Tetanus toxic in last two years than you should take it this time.2) As there are many dangerous bacteria in mouth of dog, your finger may get infected badly if left untreated. You should go to the nearest physician & get it
