I'm experiencing some pain under my left underarm, and it's really uncomfortable, especially when I sneeze or cough. I'm getting a bit worried about what might be causing this. Could it be something serious, or is it maybe just a muscle strain? What should I do?

So, I was playing with my dog and he accidentally scratched my arm with his nail. It's just a bit red, nothing major. Should I think about getting a tetanus shot for this, or am I overreacting?
If the scratch is minor and the redness is slight, a tetanus shot may not be immediately necessary. However, if the scratch is deep or if your tetanus vaccination is not up to date (usually within 5-10 years), its a good idea to consult a doctor to be safe.
