There are two important conditions for tetanus infection: first, tetanus can reproduce in deep places and cannot contact oxygen, because tetanus is anaerobic, if it can contact oxygen, it generally cannot survive and reproduce. In addition, it can contact body fluids or blood, and the toxin produced in the process of reproduction can enter the blood circulation, so it can be transported to various organs and muscles of the body. Therefore, general tetanus infection, most commonly seen in relatively large, relatively deep wounds or puncture wounds, pin wounds after the wound is relatively small, but also very deep circumstances, it is easy for tetanus bacteria to grow and reproduce in an anaerobic environment, so showing symptoms of infection.
