If you are not vaccinated with Anti tetanus vaccine in last 6 months then no need to worry ,otherwise get vaccinated with thiss vaccine within 24 hours of the cut.Although probability chances of developing Tetanus are rarest to rare but accidents do happen and it is your mind who is to decide whether to take thi vaccine or not.
