Tetanus onset precursor

Tetanus is a precursor to the onset of symptoms, which are likely to occur about a week after injury. Because the incubation period of tetanus virus is about a week, there are individual cases, which will occur one or two days after injury, and some will occur weeks or even months later. Tetanus is usually characterized by weakness, listlessness, slurred speech, drooling, muscle tension, masticatory weakness, angular arch inversion, trembling, fear of light, fear of sound, and severe breathing difficulties and suffocation. Therefore, tetanus vaccine should be injected in time after injury. Patients with sensitive constitution need to inject immunoglobulin, otherwise the consequences are very serious and the patient's life will be at risk.
