    Possible bat bite under vehicle, wound on foot.

    Bat bite under vehicle, wound on foot.

    Bat bite under vehicle??? Wound on foot



    USA, Southern California, no vaccination. My city does not see bats very often but my county where I live sees rabid bats sometimes.

    So a couple of hours ago at 10:30 AM, I was outside cleaning the inside of my car and my feet were kinda under the vehicle but not all the way in. I cleaned my vehicle and did not feel any pain, hear anything or feel anything, only felt a pinch while I was going back to my house but could not find anything.

    Now I took a shower and, just out of curiosity, looked at my foot and found a scratch, a wound of some kind, and immediately my mind went straight to a bat under the vehicle. We have cats roaming around here, too, but I think I would have felt a cat being on my foot or scratching me. My mind went straight to a bat somehow biting me on my foot. I was with slippers and a part of my upper foot was open, and the mark is on my talus bone, the bone that is a little bit out and at the upper end of the foot.

    Should i worry about this, is this wound an exposure or this could have been 100 other things, like an insect bite or something else, I felt the pinch while i was walking back and forth talking with someone on the phone but did not notice anything.
