Infected with tetanus will have a fever?

Tetanus patients may show fever, but not because of infection with Clostridium tetani, which causes paroxysmal muscle spasms. This is because Clostridium tetani secretes an exotoxin called tetanus spasmodic toxin. This spasmodic toxin does not cause fever directly. Even if it causes muscle spasms, it usually does not show particularly obvious fever. However, tetanus patients may indeed show fever, mainly because tetanus is mostly infected from the wound, which will cause tetanus symptoms without treatment. At this time, in addition to tetanus clostridium infection, it is also very likely to be accompanied by some other bacterial infections, causing local redness, fever and pain or a manifestation of systemic fever.
