    Tetanus is possible, not impossible. Tetanus is an acute, specific, and toxic disease characterized by tonic contraction and paroxysmal spasm of the whole skeletal muscle caused by Clostridium tetani invading the human body through a mucosal break, multiplying in an anaerobic environment and producing exotoxins, and invading the motor neurons of the nervous system. Clostridium tetani is abundant in the intestinal tract of humans and animals, and can cause disease through wound infection after feces contaminate the soil.

    At present, although the mortality rate of tetanus is relatively high, it is not incurable, the main manifestations of tetanus are general malaise, fatigue, dizziness, headache, masticatory weakness, hyperreflexia, etc., followed by muscle tension contractions, paroxysmal spasms will first appear in the masticatory muscles, and finally the diaphragm and intercostal muscles, the above seizures can be induced by slight light and sound contact with drinking water, etc., the more frequent the attacks, the more serious the condition, the course of the disease is generally 3 4 weeks, if the above symptoms can be gradually reduced if properly treated, There is still a period of local muscle tension or hyperreflexia after healing.

    1.Tetanus is only more susceptible to tetanus if it is a deep wound and is stained with mud or punctured by a rusty iron object! 2.

    Washing a wound with tap water will not create an anaerobic environment, but try not to wash the wound with tap water, because tap water contains a variety of bacteria and microorganisms, which are more likely to cause wound infection. It is best to wash the wound with an antiseptic such as hydrogen peroxide! 3.

    Pimples will not cause tetanus when they break, but be careful not to pinch pimples with your hands, because your hands, especially your nails, carry all kinds of bacteria, which is very unhygienic. If needed, be sure to wash your hands thoroughly with soap and scrub pimples with a disinfected tampon! 4.

    Canker sores and stomach ulcers don't cause tetanus, and drinking rusty water doesn't make a difference! Tetanus bacillus is an anaerobic bacterium, a conditional pathogen that grows and multiplies only under oxygen-free conditions or when the wound is deep and accompanied by aerobic infection. Tetanus bacilli mostly grow in soil and rust, so tetanus antitoxin should be injected when the wound is deeply contaminated with soil or punctured by rust-like iron objects.

    If the wound is not deep, as long as proper debridement is done, there is no need to inject tetanus antitoxin. Or use some disinfectant such as red potion to wipe it out. If the wound is dry and there is no exudate, there is no need to wipe it again.
