View Full Version : I stepped on a nail?
it wasnt rusty, but i think ill go and get a tetanus shot..i was skating down the street, ollied onto a curb and kickflipped off, but fell (yea i know lame), and when i fell i felt something go through my shoe..i just kept skating, and it really hurt every time i pushed, so i stopped at the pizza place, checked it out and found out it was a nail, so i held it so it would stop bleeding, got a pizza, then went to my friends house to patch it up...
should i get a tetanus(sp?) shot?

Yes, it really doesnt matter if it was rusty or not. It could still be infectious anyway.
