Inj. Teatnus is required once in 5 years if the person is fully immunized previously.... if you have taken inj. Teatnus 6 months back then no need this time....
Just keep the wound clean and dry... do daily dressing with betadine... that will be enough....
Stop smoking if you do as it delays healing process...
