My daughter is 6 yrs old and i have done his DPT booster dose on June 2025. While playing in the park, she has a cut( minor scratch) on her hips by slide. Do she needs to take tetanus injection or not??

Hello there, initially for a cut , you need to wash properly the abraded minor cut area. If your child is vaccinated as per national schedule, you need not repeat tetanus vaccination now. But make sure you vaccinate your child properly as per vaccination schedule. Do Consult online and get prescribed, your child will be fine soon. Don't worry.
Next Steps
check for danger signs at the minor cut area.
