I was exposed to dog saliva on my hands for 20 minutes before eating, and the dog appeared healthy for the next 10 days. How can I be sure that I don't have rabies, and are there any other health concerns from this exposure?

I have a slight vibration on the inside of my right heel, occurring every 8-15 seconds and lasting for about 1-2 seconds. It is not painful and very subtle. I had the same sensation in the back of my right thigh just above my knee a few weeks ago. I take Keppra, 500mg twice a day due to a brain tumor that was removed in September 2018. I have had many MRIs and doctors' visits since then, with no other concerns mentioned. What could be causing these symptoms, and what further tests should I consider?
