UNGGH!! I got a tetanus booster shot yesterday and my arm hurts like hell and is completely useless. It's kind of swollen, too. [More:]Also, since I've been starting to feel Carpal Tunnel-like sensations in my right arm over the past two or three days, I'm going to continue laying off the intarwebs for a while. Cheers, I'll be back in a few days.
hm. i had to get one last year when i stepped on a nail and it did not even make my arm sore at all, after people warning me how bad it was. yes, lay off the intarwebs. they are bad for u.
Tetanus is an evil shot. I heard that a lot of people are sensitive to the serum used in tetanus shots, which is why they are reputed to hurt more

On the bright side, you can now walk around barefoot in the alley.

for seven to ten years

that's bang for your buck shot

some people react more to boosters and vaccinations, at the site or in the muscle
it's good to know if you are one of them
or a big whiny baby

mostly people are startled at a new senation
and they scream anyway
the puffiness and pain is only slightly related to it
*serves invita the rustiest part of the pudding*
it only takes a minute to shake milk in a jar
tetanus shots and instant pudding
the world is a varied wealth of advancement

The first shot I remember taking, I must've been seven or eight or something, and before the doc spiked me, he said, "I'm just gonna give you a little shot of courage."

That line eradicated my fear of needles, then and there.

I got one a couple weeks ago and my arm was sore for about 5 days. Don't worry, it'll go away.

A lot of adults are allergic to the pertussis vaccine in the DPT, which is why they now make DT without the P.
I think you can put heat or cold on it, you could call where you got it and ask.
