Confused about tt vac

I had taken TT (Tetanus Toxoid) vaccines on 11/08/2025, 05/11/2025, and 13/03/2026. However, the timing was not maintained properly. I took them at approximately 0, 3 months, and 4 months instead of the recommended 0, 1 month, and 6 months schedule. Today, I had a bike accident and my foot was cut by a dirty/rusty piece of metal. After that, I went to a local doctor, and he advised me to take a TT injection. I forgot to tell him that I had already taken those 3 TT injections, although not at the proper intervals. Now, should I take another TT injection? If I take one, will it be safe? Also, I am currently undergoing a course of anti-rabies vaccination.. booster dose.(0,3,14) Confused... please clarify these
