Consult Now
There is no need of taking TT vaccine now as the incubation period of Tetanus is 10-20 days. But in future if you get any cuts or injuries,  please take TT vacation as soon as possible. In case you need any further assistance,  you can consult me online on Practo.
Next Steps
Keep the cuts clean with antiseptic liquid.
Health Tips
If you notice any signs of infection like fever , rash , etc. consult me online on Practo.
