Does the tetnus shot hurt?

Yeah it hurts just a little bit, but it is a pain you soon forget about. Tetanus (or d-tap) shot combines diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis (whooping cough) The tetanus shot hurts, but only for a second. 1) Ask for numbing cream at the beginning of the appointment 2) Do NOT look at the needle! 3) Keep calm and don't think about it! 4) Look away, think about stuff that you want to do when you get home.
