I stepped on a piece of glass at the beach earlier today. It was so sharp, it went right through my tennis shoe & punctured my foot.
The wound bled heavily at first, but by the time I got home & took my shoes & socks off, it was a tiny little dot of a wound with no bleeding. I cleaned it and put a bandaid on.
My friend thinks I should get a tetanus shot. I can't recall the last time I had a booster, but I am terrified if I go in I will have to get the shot where they give you a bunch of shots in your stomach. Do doctor's still do that for tetanus? I'd love it if a medical professional could tell me what to expect...
