Stomach Ache After Taking Tetanus Shot For Dog Bite. Serious?
dog bite yesterday, 2 puncture wounds, made to soak in special soapy water for about an hour, x rays - no breaks, received tetanus shot, dressed wounds with Dr s office super neosporin , wrapped up, sent home. Question: Is this weird stomach ache (almost cramp-like/a little nausea ) feeling across my upper stomach area (feels to be in/near the area of the transverse colon ) a leftover from the tetanus shot, or something more serious? I go back in 2 days to have it looked at.

Hi
The stomach ache is not related to tetanus shot.
Please take Rabeprazole and antispasmodic Dicyclomine.
It will come down.
Nothing to worry
Wish you good health and speedy recovery
