you'll likely be ok, I managed to embed a rusty nail a million and a 0.5 inches into my foot very last year in between my feet. Worryingly you ought to be certain that the bit that changed into embedded changed into cleanser than some thing else so the airborne dirt and dirt and rust changed into interior my foot, I confirmed it to the medical institution and requested for a tetanus injection, they were quite reluctant even although I hadn't had a shot for better than 10 years yet i wanted one to placed my recommendations at relax, I advance tomatoes and beans interior the backyard and typically get splinters from the bamboo canes that are time-honored to be a source of tetanus so a least i comprehend i'm rather secure for decades. If I do keep up a shrink I many times enable it bleed for a lengthy time period providing it isn't any longer too large, optimistically the blood will wash any airborne dirt and dirt or micro organism out of it. .....and certain It damage...a lot:(

Yeah lots of people get slight fevers after that shot.Take a couple of Tylenol but if the temp gets greater than 101.6 or so call the doctor. Or if you have difficulty breathing.Sore arm after the shot is normal.

Yes this is normal. You should do what your doctor or nurse advised. Tylenol is good if you can take that. You arm will be sore for close to two weeks the best thing to do for the arm is use it to work the soreness out.

it is normal
if it goes really high then call your doctor
you could call if you are concerned
or worried it might just make you feel better to know what your doctor wants you to look for
another option is to look up the 24 hour nurse line it will be listed under your local hospital
they are very helpful with answering questions like these

that's a very low-grade fever and it's totally normal to have a fever after getting shots.

yes it's normal. treat the fever with tylenol and the soreness with a warm compress. if redness or streaking occurs, call your m.d.
