Hi!
Yes, tetanus shot given within 24 hours of a wound or wound contaminations works towards preventing tetanus. So, yes your ATS shot should work. Your symptoms could be due to dust and dirt and contamination of food with dirty hands etc. Also, area around a wound and around tetanus shot will be painful for some days. However, if symptoms persist, please consult a doctor. Take care!
