Dear Doctors & Experts,

I do not know I was immunized in my child hood. I am 32 years old male India. I have taken TT injection in April 2013, and Nov 2013, Now today I have got a small cut in my finger.
Is is necessary to take TT injection. I am travelling in train and not able to get TT injection till 30 hrs.
So please suggest me what to do.

I reached my destination and left my train. I have taken TT injection last year in April & Nov month. I have small puncture in my finger by pin.
Should I take TT injection now or not?

An adult who's never been immunized against tetanus should complete the initial tetanus series of three tetanus shots. The first two shots are given at least four weeks apart, and the third shot is given six to 12 months after the second shot. After the initial tetanus series, booster shots are recommended every 10 years.

So during your childhood,if you did not receive(do not know for sure),you can receive Td or TIG booster doses.The vaccination against Tetanus is given as DaPT vaccine in India at age 2,4,6,15,18 months and 4 through 6 years as booster doses.Talk to your Dr for how many doses still can be given to you.
