I am 16 weeks pregnant and believe i got a ant or apider bite over the weekend.Yesterday i called the nurses on call and apparently i don't have any symptoms at all.
Should i get a tetanus shot??
Answer:
You wouldn't need to get a tetanus shot unless you stepped on a rusty nail, or cut yourself on something dirty. For any kind of bug bite, you don't need a tetanus shot.
UNLES YOU LIVE IN AFRICA
WITH THE RED ANTS YES
BUT NOT HERE IN STATES
THE ANTSD WE HAVE CLOSEST
PNCH YOU. FROM TEX ARIZ, MEX
CAL..FLA. THESE ANTS GIVE A WARM
STING.
RED ANTS GIVE A BARRACODA
STING AND DEADLY.
TELL A DR. YOU WON'T DIE UNLESS YOUR IN AFRICA.
BEST
a tetanus shot would not help with a spider bite, or ant bite. I would just but some cream on it, but i wouldn't worry about getting a tetanus shot.
Like everyone has said, a tetnus shot has nothing to do with getting ant or spider bites. You may or may not have any symptoms but I would check with a Doctor just to be on the safe side as they may be able to detect something from the site where you've been bitten. Never hurts to be cautious when pregnant.
A tentanus shot does nothing for a spider bite. Stop worrying hon, you'll be fine
