Dying from tetanus can be the most painful way to die in the world.
If you have been hurt or cut from any metal, get yourself vaccinated immediately.
There is a lot to hear about tetanus but do not know what is it?
What is Tetanus?
Tetanus is a serious disease.
It is a deadly disease. This disease is caused by a bacteria. The name of this bacteria is caused by Clostridium tetani.
In the environment, this bacteria occurs in the soil as a spore.
If you get hurt by stained things like iron, stone, animal feces, then it can enter your body through open wounds.
It can spread infection in the body.
It starts getting active in the body rapidly.
It produces a poison in the body that affects the nerves attached to the muscles, the nervous system.
Due to which the patient gets symptoms of this disease.
Symptoms :-
It is visible to the patient after the smallest, biggest injury.
The patient gets these symptoms between 7 and 21 days.
In this, the patient may initially have pain in the throat, difficulty in swallowing.
After this, as the disease progresses, the patient's muscles mostly start to tighten.
In this, the muscles around the patient's neck are more affected, they feel more pain.
In this, the patient develops tension around the neck and around the jaw and the patient has difficulty in opening the mouth and breathing.
This condition is also called a link.
If the disease is severe, the patient may need to take a ventilator due to difficulty in breathing.
If the patient does not get treatment at the right time, then his life can also be lost.
Now I will tell you about its treatment and injection.
Sometimes with the injection of tetanus, immunoglobulins ie antibodies from outside are also given.
We are given doses for tetanus since childhood.
We should take a booster dose every year.
Those are clean wounds, that is, they are not more than one centimeter deep. In such a case, if you patient has not had a tetanus injection in the last 10 years, then a tetanus injection is given.
If the wound is more than 1 cm deep, it has been 6 hours since the injury or if it is soiled, then in such a case an additional booster dose is given if the injection has not been done in the last 5 years.
Also, if a patient has not had injections before or does not know his course, then it is necessary to take the full course.
