Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I can understand your concern.

Your decision to wash the affected area with soap afterward was a prudent and sensible action. It is important to note that rabies symptoms typically manifest between four to 12 weeks after exposure and may include non-specific flu-like symptoms, fever, excessive saliva production, throat pain, difficulty swallowing, and stupor.
