Tetanus antitoxin should be inoculated as soon as possible within 24 hours after hand injury. Tetanus is an acute infectious disease caused by Clostridium tetani infection, with high mortality rate after onset. Patients with hand injury should be debrided in time and see a general surgery department for antitoxin inoculation.
