Tom, When I had a problem with my achilles tendon (Not wearing socks caused it to be blistered and exposed) one of the First thing the surgeon said to me? was when your last Tetanus shot, Then proceeded to give me one. My own Doctor would have done it but it was her that referred me to the Surgeon, For me, any deep cuts or abrasions like the Tendon should be treated with great care IMHO. maybe next time you have a concern maybe visit A&E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
