The wound is very mild, no need of taking a TT injection if taken within 6 months .
Next Steps
Just avoid water contact with the toe to avoid any sepsis in future. Apply MUPIROCIN ointment for early healing. Don't wear tight shoes as it can increase the pain

I would suggest you to take a booster dose of tt injection if you have not taken any tt booster within last 5 years. There are chances of soil or dirt contamination over the wall and there is an open wound with minimal bleeding. Hence it is advisable for a booster injection
Next Steps
also clean the wound well with soap under running water
Health Tips
avoid dust or dirt exposure to the wound.. wound care

If you have taken a tetanus (TT) injection anytime in the last 5 years, you do not need another one. Just keep the area clean and observe. If you have not taken a TT in the last 5 years, then one dose is advisable.

No, you do NOT need a Tetanus (TT) injection for this injury.Here’s why: Very minor injury (only a tiny bit of blood that stopped in 2 minutes) Happened indoors (hit against a wall at home) → clean environment is clean, not dirty/rusty/soiled No deep puncture, no soil/manure/animal bite, no rusty object Just a superficial scrape or small cut on the toe
