i dont mean to be mean
but your a bit of an idiot
no, u do not have rabies, if you did you would not be using yahoo to find out
newho, go to the doctor and if your physically okay, maybe they can recommend a nice shrink for you to see :)

Ofcourse!!!! it won't get better by itself. I don't really know if you have rabies, but a doctor will know.But go right away since you said the wound is swollen cause the infection is setting in.

you should have consulted a doctor immediately after that incident.
atleast now rush to a doctor.
after a dog / cat / fox bite if u survive, wash it immediately with lots of water. water should keep flowing. then clean the wound with antiseptic liquids on the upper part of the wound.
consult a doctor.. don't waste time

Any animal bite should be seen by a doctor for at least a tetanus shot. Highly unusual to say the least, to be bitten by a fox....extremely rare.

Anytime you get bit by a wild animal you should go to the doctor. Period.

you'd have to have more symptoms than your leg twitching. call a vet.

No. You'll be fine. I am not a real doctor. I just play one on TV.
