Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
hi there my daughter got bittern on frid night it small puncture on her hand was red we put germaline on it and the swelling and redness went down she has been keeping it clean and has only a small bruise there, just to check if she shopuld be seen incase antibiotics needed it not red or leaking just bruised and she is ten and a half to ckeck she would be covered against tetanus please.
You mean she is 10 and half years old? Generally, routine TT vaccines are given at 10 yrs. If you have not given that you can give it now. no need to worry for bruises alone. If there are pain and swelling you may need to give antibiotics.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
