TT injection
Hi,
My son got a minor dot like cut in his index finger today, which led to minor bleeding. All his vaccination have been done till the age of 2.5 years
Do we still need to go for TT injection just as a precaution?
Thanks

Hello!
Since all routine vaccine have been taken no need to take additional TT injection in this case.
Wound cleaning and T-bact cream application is required.
