Regarding tetanus

2024-03-28 06:49:38
My mother had a small cut in her hand while cleaning. Immediately she cleaned the wound and applied antiseptic cream . This happened on Sunday . Now she doesn't have pain and cut almost closed. She has not taken tetanus for many years.  Does she require a tetanus injection.  She is 75 yrs old
