What do you think? I'm otherwise physically healthy.
When was the last time you had a tetnus shot? That should determine the answer, regardless of whether the thing is rusty, etc. It's always best to consult your GP (internist) on this. Likely even your GP's nurse or your pharmacist could give more reliable advice than us.
