I took TT vaccine two times on last year mid of 2020 within one month interval due to injury. After more than 1 year right now I got a cut. Do I need TT vaccine again? How long does TT Ampule vaccine provide protection?

Yes.. You need to get a TT shot especially the wound is soiled. Its always better to get it done if the wound is little deeper If you take a TT shot, for next 6 months you do not need to take it again or else you should.

If the wound is clean and minor , no need to take TT. TT provides protection for 10 years.
