Tetanus vaccines

Hello SoWal,

Isn?t the weather gorgeous! When it starts to get warm like this lots of folks start thinking about getting outdoor projects started. Fences or decks might need a few new boards, there are areas crying out for a coat of paint, or it may be time to dig that new herb garden. With all these projects comes the possibility of injury. If you are unfortunate enough to sustain an injury like a cut, burn, or animal bite, you definitely want to consider getting a Tetanus Vaccine. It has been said that stepping on a rusty nail will give you Tetanus but although rust won?t cause Tetanus, it does provide a favorable habitat for it to thrive. Clostridium Tetani is the bacteria that causes Tetanus and can be found in soil, dust, or animal waste. Even the most trivia wound could have contamination. The rule of thumb is you should get a Tetanus shot every 10 years. Tetanus is nothing to fool around with. It can be deadly! If you injure yourself, check with your physician. If he or she prescribes a Tetanus shot then come see us at ProHealth (1131 Mack Bayou Rd.) or call us at 850-267-0360 and we?ll make sure you get protected.
Be safe and take care.
