Ok, so I always end up coming back to this forum with a fear of tetanus. That is really the only "vaccine preventable" disease that scares me despite having educated myself well on this subject. My son is completely vaccine free.
We went to the farm today where we get milk. My son was bit on the leg. The bite was mostly superficial but there was a very tiny puncture wound from one tooth. It wouldn't bleed though a tiny amount of blood surfaced, but does look bruised and there is a very tiny whole. It wasn't that serious but there wasn't a good way to tend to the wound on the farm. The farmer had some expired hydrogen peroxide which I used. then I came home and gave my son a soak in the bath with tea tree oil and then used hydrogen peroxide and extra vitamin C. I will repeat this process again this evening.
Do I need to worry? If not, I am still extraordinarily worried and upset by this! This is the one thing that always scares me!
