Doctor, i am confused. could i catch sore throat because of hdcv rabies vaccine. i am suffering from sore throat since after my second shot.

No: The rabies vaccine will not give you a sore throat. If you are allergic to it, you could have swelling in the throat but that usually causes respiratory problems and / or itching. It is more likely that you got a viral infection of the throat around the same time as the vaccination - completely unrelated.
