Tetanus is a serious bacterial infection caused by Clostridium bacteria. These bacteria can be found in soil, saliva, dust, and manure. They can enter the body through deep cuts, such as from stepping on a nail, or through burns. The most common symptoms are muscle stiffness, particularly in the jaw (trismus) and excessive sweating (hypersecretion). If you suspect tetanus, seek emergency medical care immediately. Diagnosis is confirmed through a clinical examination and possibly tests like tetanus immunoglobulin and wound care. Treatment is determined by a clinician after confirming the diagnosis and may include tetanus immunoglobulin and wound care.
