Yesterday, I cut my knee on a barbed wire/rusty fence while my friend was lifting me over it. the cut is not deep it just looks like a long scratch really. But I was wondering if I could get Tetanus. I have not had the shot. I'm not sure if its too earlier to show the symptoms but I have like a tingly sensation on my forehead and slight fever.
This morning I found a tick crawling on me, and I checked myself but there were none that I could find. My friends and I were walking through the woods yesterday. again the symptom is a tingly fever.
Any advice?
you should get a tetanus shot. lock jaw camp kill you but if the cut isnt deep then you should be ok. but if the tick didnt bite you then dont worry about lyme diease. just go to the doctors and get a tetanus shot. hope that helps!!!
