    Default do i need a tetnus shot?

    I stood on a tiny piece of broken glass at the beach. It cut my foot in a tiny spot.

    I am out of date with tetnus shots should I go get one?

    No you dont - but Im sure other people will disagree.
    If you cleaned the wound properly and if there were no cows or horses on the beach you should be fine really (-:

    I think you can only get tetnus from metal, but don't quote me on that.

    I poured my mount franklin water over it and pulled the glass out.
    But I didn't get home for hours to clean it in the bath
    Will I be ok??? Im a bit of a hypochondriac.

    I think you will be fine.
    Probably a Dr would tell you to get the shot though cos thats what they do and really only you can decided. If youre going to get one anyway it might as well be now as anythime...
    My family dont believe in tetanus shots and have had much worse cuts with no problem. The risk of catching tetanus from a piece of broken glass on the beach though is very small. The bacteria is mostly found around animals, usually cows.

    I was just concerned more coz I didn't clean it right away. My mum is a nurse and she didn't seem concerned about it either. It's prob just my anxiety.

    Im paranoid about catching things.

    Lol (-:
    Do you have any Colloidal Silver? You could dab the wound wth that and drink 10 or 20 mils twice a day. Honestly that stuff is great! Also you could take vitamin C megadoses regularly and youll never catch anything very much again.

    No I must try this collidal silver, you have mentioned it and so has my friend from work, she swears by it too.

    Now this megadose is it def safe? coz i have heard warnings that too much vit C can be damaging. Im not sure tho haven't done much reading on the topic. But not getting sick does sound extremely appealing

    Its safe unless you have kidney problems or possible other serious health problems but it helps so may things too. Its not a bad idea if you have health concerns to discuss with a Dr (though mot wont take the vitamin C thing seriously) and its definatly worth reading up on. it helps you keep looking young too (-:
    I used the vitamin C method successfully for about 14 years, I even did 30grammes intravenously twice a week for a while. Ive only stopped because Im doing a really extreme form of cleansing and synthetic vitamin C isnt allowed )-:
    Colloidal Silver and my zappers work though so its not so bad (-:

    Re: vitamin C megadoses. I've heard here and there that vitamin C can "fuck you up". What's up with that?? And what constitutes a megadose?

    I used to take 1G per day of vitamin C and since hearing that a few times I quit.

    1 gramma would be considered a megadose but many people (myself included) would take a minimum of 5 grammes daily. I did this for years. I shall probably do it again in future too.

    I wouldnt worry. The only times I've been told to get my tetnus up to date was when I was bit. I made sure both that and my rabies shot was UTD when I worked at the vet hospital, but since then I havent needed it. Tetnus lasts for 5 years(I believe) so if you want to get it anyway go ahead...but a piece of glass shouldnt be an issue. I cut myself all the time(I'm a bit of a clutz) and animal bites were the only things the Dr's were concerned about shots for.
