Question: I cut myself on rusty metal, should I worry about anything!?
Today I cut myself on some rusty metal, it bled, but I put iodine on it right away and covered it with a plaster!. Do I have to get a tetanus booster (or anything else) or will I be ok!? (It's only a little cut)Www@Answer-Health@Com
