Tetanus shot related
Hello
I got a small wound from a rustic iron rod on my toe 3 days back. today i took the tt shot.(after 72 hours)
As I don't know when i previously had tt shot.
As the wound happened i cleaned that with savlon and applied band aid. And using betadine.
Are there still chances of infection.
