Is it normal for my dad to shiver and have a high fever after a CECT scan? His temperature is around 102 degrees Celsius, and we've given him an antiallergic medicine and paracetamol, but it hasn't lowered. Could this be a dangerous reaction, or will he feel better soon? I'm worried because he's diabetic and has high blood pressure with a reading of 156100. Should I take him to the hospital, or wait it out?

I got a TT vaccine around 4 months ago, but the nurse gave it on my buttocks. Today, I got a small scratch from an iron wire while playing cricket. I'm worried if the vaccine still provides immunity since it was administered on the buttocks. Should I get another TT shot for this incident? Would love a detailed explanation.
Since you received the TT vaccine four months ago, it should provide immunity against tetanus for at least 3-5 years, even if it was given in the buttocks. A small scratch from an iron wire doesn't typically require a booster, but if you notice any signs of infection or develop symptoms like muscle stiffness or difficulty swallowing, seek medical attention immediately.
