Hi Sir, I got a scratch from a junked floor mop sticks broken tip. The wound has healed it's 4 days back when I got it. Do I need to get a tetanus shot. I got one when in July last year. I am over thinking and anxious. I also feel pain and touch sensitivity at the top of the finger that had the wound. Not at the site of wound. What should I do?

You need to take a TT injection now and if you take one injection every month for 3 months you will be protected for 5 years
