Duration between two Tetanus injection
I had tetanus vaccines in my childhood. Then last month I need to take one injection due to injury.
Today, again i got injury in my leg possibly due to tin. But theres no blood came out of wound but i can see painful scar. Do I need to take tetanus injection again after my dose a month back?

No need if you have taken last month and during childhood if your vaccinations schedule is complete.
