    Seven or eight months have passed since the patient said this situation, and if he had contracted tetanus, he would have developed the disease long ago. If the patient does not have any symptoms of discomfort now, it is generally considered that there should be no tetanus infection at that time, and it is recommended not to be careful.

    It's okay Small wounds are fine.

    Forebody symptoms include malaise, dizziness, headache, weakness in chewing, tightness of local muscles, pulling pain, and hyperreflexia.

    Typical symptoms are paroxysmal intense spasms based on tonic contractions (rigid, stiff), usually the masticatory muscles first, followed by facial expression muscles, neck, back, abdomen, limb muscles, and finally diaphragm.

    Corresponding signs are: difficulty opening the mouth (trismus), frowning, retracting corners of the mouth, grinning "wry", stiff neck, tilted head; When the back and abdominal muscles contract at the same time, because the back muscles are more powerful, the trunk is twisted into a bow, combined with the neck and limbs of the knee bend, elbow bending, half fist and other spasmodic postures, forming "angular arch reflexion" or "side arch reflex"; When the diaphragm is affected, the face and lips are bluish and ventilation is difficult, and apnea may occur.

    1. As long as the wound is not infected, you will not get tetanus.

    2. Tetanus bacilli are afraid of oxygen, and if it is punctured by a nail with rust, it should be vaccinated against tetanus.

    3. Yours is not pierced by iron nails, so you don't need to have a tetanus. But be sure to take care that the wound does not become infected, and it will be fine.

    What are the symptoms of tetanus?

    1.Incubation period: The length varies and is often related to factors such as whether the injection has been received, the nature and location of the wound, and the treatment of the wound. Usually 7-8 days, but there are as short as only 24 hours or as long as months or years.

    2.Prodromal phase: fatigue, dizziness, headache, weakness in chewing, hyperreflexia, irritability, local pain, muscle stretching, convulsions and rigidity, tension in the lower jaw, inconvenience in opening the mouth.

    3.Episodic phase: Persistent muscle contraction. At first, it is the masticatory muscles, and then the face, neck, back, abdomen, limbs, and finally the diaphragm and intercostal muscles.

    4.Vibrations to sound and light, drinking water, and injections can induce paroxysmal spasms. The patient is conscious at all times and does not feel abnormal. There is usually no high fever.

    The incubation period is basically only a few days. Usually within a week.

    If you are cut by scissors, if there is rust or dirt on the scissors, you can suspect a tetanus infection.

    But tetanus bacilli is an anaerobic bacterium. It is necessary to have a deep wound and other bacterial infections before the attack can occur. Tetanus has rarely been found in superficial wound infections.

    I have seen a case in the hospital before, a farmer was stabbed with an iron nail before the seizure, but now it is rare. There are very few people in the city who have this disease. ,
