Okay, so I recently got a tattoo on my back and ever since, I've been feeling a bit off. I'm having a fever, my neck feels really cramped, and I'm struggling with my breathing. I did get a tetanus shot last year, so I'm kind of worried and confused. Should I consider getting another tetanus vaccine, or could these symptoms be linked to something else? What do you think I should do?

It is important to ensure that your tetanus vaccination is up to date, especially if you have experienced symptoms that could be related to tetanus. Since you have received a tetanus vaccine last year, it is recommended to get a booster dose if it has been more than 5 years since your last tetanus-containing vaccine. You can get a booster dose of Tdap vaccine, which includes protection against tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis. Please consult with your healthcare provider to confirm the timing and dosage of the vaccine based on your individual situation.Last updated on 04 Jul 2025
