I stepped on a 15g interior finishing nail today from a baseboard. Guessing about an inch of it went inside my foot. Gave it a wash with peroxide but Im not sure how clean it got it. Since this aint a rusty nail, do I need to worry about tetanus? Ive had a shot but I dont know if it was within the last 10 years. Should I be worried?

If their is a question as to whether it is still good, I would go and get another..

Prolly wouldn't hurt to go get one. It be a sumbitch if a finishing nail did you in.
 
Git another shot and let that wound breathe in the direct sunshine.

A deep puncture wound is very serious cuz you can git flesh eatin anerobic bacteria down in thar.

A fellow in Texas lost his foot the other day from that flesh eatin bacteria gettin in through an ingrown toenail.

Can you get the flesh eating bacteria from a dry interior nail though? I know theres no way of knowing but just saying.

If stepping on nails is a work hazard for you it wouldn't hurt to get one. Remember that girl a couple of years ago that got that flesh eating bacteria from riding a zip line. Supposedly that stuff is everywhere
