This is coming from someone who absolutely hates needles and just had to get a tetanus shot after stepping on a nail. I was talked into it by friends in this lovely community in fact

Is it absolutely necessary?

 

[Skippersnh]

Yup

It would not hurt to get a tetanus shot at your Urgent Care or doctor’s office. They last 10 years, and just living on a farm, you may get stuck with a nail or staple, or cut yourself. If you are a kid and up to date on your vaccines, you may be okay to not get the tetanus shot. Tetanus is a bad disease, also called lockjaw, and is preventable. Most people in the past have gotten it by stepping on a rusty nail or a similar way. The bacteria is found in the soil and in animal droppings.

Haha, trust me, I understand! But once you read up on tetanus, you'll scare yourself right into it. It's far far better to get the shot than to deal with the ramifications if you did get an infection. Do a little research and you'll know exactly why you should get the shot

But it is going to hurt so bad

I'm sorry that happened. I don't like shots much either, but sometimes its necessary. I would get one....you know the saying, "its better to be safe than sorry"?
