Q. #AskTheExpert My daughter is 3.4 yrs old. Last week at school, she got a tiny scratch in her hand from an iron table. It was not rusted. But the school PPL cleaned the bleeding wound with antiseptic solution. She was given booster dose of tetanus injection (DTP) 1.8 yrs back. Does she need to take TT injection again? Today all of a sudden, she has got high fever. Could it be due to this reason? Is it too late to give TT now? I am really worried.
