Tetanus vaccine query
I had my tetanus vaccination in childhood, but as I am aware, I did not take any other booster vaccine shot in the last 10-12 years.
In February 2024, i got one small injury and took one TT 0.5 ml vaccine shot. Now, approx 10 days back, I got one minor finger injury, which caused minor swelling and pus around nails, but I did not take any TT injection again. I took antibiotics, and it was cured. Shall I supposed to take another TT injection after 3 months, or will the previous one provide the protection? Your detailed answer would be appreciated and help others as well.
