For soreness from a tetanus shot, it's generally recommended to use ice rather than heat. Applying ice can help reduce swelling and numb the area, providing relief from discomfort. Heat may exacerbate inflammation and should typically be avoided right after receiving the vaccine. Always consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
