I got mine in the back of my hip right above my buttocks.

a tetanus shot is to be given subcutaneously 45 degree agle under the skin which is in the arm .

In your arm

Well, I guess in the upper arm. I had one and that's where they gave it. They asked which arm I wrote with and gave it in the opposite arm. They did the same for my daughter when she had to get one. So I guess either upper arm will do.

Its injected intramuscularly usually in the upper arm.

This shot is usually given in your arm. Also they usually do it in the arm you don't use as often. So if right handed you would have it done in your left arm. The shot can hurt afterwards for a few days. This is normal for anybody getting the shot.

In the arm.
