Is Tetnus shot required ?
Firstly, Happy Diwali.
Finger got scratched by a plastic object. Object was clean.
Scratch is so small that it's not visible from naked eye (unless extremely close inspection).
Scratch had extremely minor bleeding (not even a drop).
Cleaned with dettol + handwash + sanitizer within 2 mins.
Do I need tetnus shot ?
I haven't taken any tetnus shots in last 5-6 years.
Cannot attach picture because it's not visible on finger anymore.
