      My last tetanus shot hurt for 3 weeks straight. But I ended up not breaking my spine with muscle convulsions, so I think it’s a pretty good trade off.

        That’s probably on whoever gave you the shot. If you hit fat or a tendon with an IM shot it hurts for a while.

            Yeah, I have to do testosterone shots, and my left leg doesn’t seem to have any good spots, so it usually has a painful knot for like 10 days.

      It’s not chemicals that protect from tetanus; it’s the dead tetanus bacterium the vaccine contains that train the immune system to recognize the threat.
