Q. #asktheexpert My daughter is 3 years old and has her vaccines on schedule since birth. She fell on road and got bruised a few days back. Normally, in such conditions, you are advised to have a shot of tetanus. Is it true that kids uptil 5 years of age dont need tetanus shot as their routine vaccines are sufficient? or kids under 5 need tetanus shot if they get injured.
