Tetanus inj
Yesterday I have got slight 3 cm straight and thin burn on my hand . It has not broken my skin . Only dark reddish colour on the site of burn can be seen . Will I need a tetanus inj. Because I have not taken the initial 3-5 doses of tdap vaccine but have taken it unorderly or whenever there is injury. I have last taken the tt inj. 13 months before. .
