I was bitten by a dog, what should I do?
My tetanus vaccine was given almost 10 years ago, do I need a booster shot in connection with this bite?

Hello, thank you for your question!
A dog bite requires an antibiotic treatment right away, and a booster dose for tetanus is also suggested if it has been 10 years or more. I strongly suggest that you consult a doctor.
I hope this has been helpful to you, and if you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me
