T-DAP shot?!


Question: My dad has been scaring me about this T-Dap shot and I am only 11. I have no idea if it will hurt or not. I have asked all of my friends and even my sisters and they all said that it was horrible and make you arm hurt. My question is: Does the T-Dap shot really does hurt?

A little, but it goes away quickly. It's not horrible.

The D- tap shot is not any more painful than any other vaccination. Don't lose any sleep over it!
What are the possible side effects?
Most potential side effects are associated with the pertussis part of the vaccine. Neither the diptheria nor the tetanus vaccine is known to cause any serious side effects.

Relatively common side effects
