Tetanus toxoid

2021-05-30 09:11:09
I got a splinter in my finger, there is construction going on in my house. I am diabetic and occasionally drink alcohol. I got injury (splinter in my index finger) two days back, what is maximum time after which I can take tetanus toxoid( I was thinking of getting it tomorrow) and I don't remember my last booster dose. Will there be any complications and what are the precautions I need to take.
