No need. Just clean the area with some antispetic agent and let it dry. Tetanus injection is usually effective for 6 months from date of injection.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
If the wound is clean and you have not had a tetanus booster in the last 10 years, it is recommended that you receive one. If the wound is dirty or tetanus-prone, then your doctor would likely recommend a tetanus booster if you have not had a tetanus booster shot within the last five years.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.

If your skin gets pierced from anything, be it your own kitchen knife or a rusty old screw, it's worth making sure that your tetanus shot is up to date.

These vaccines protect over 95% of people from disease for approximately 10 years. Currently the cdc advisory committee on immunization practices recommends a booster shot every 10 years.

Immediately contact a good nearby hospital and get tetanus vaccine and immunoglobulin. Though the first symptom is usually jaw spasm, it would be better not to take a risk and get a physical checkup by a good doctor.

Hello,
Tetanus Toxid Injection should be given within 7-8 hours of Bleeding Injury. If given afterwards, it won't have any effect on the occurred injury, but you will be protected from Clostridium Tetani infection, over next 6 months, for future bleeding injuries.
There won't be any other Side Effects.
Regards.

You need not to take the vaccine again as your previous shot will act for 10 years.
Clean the wound with water and soap. Keep the wounded area clean to avoid infection. Take care.
