No longer than 3 or 4 days.
Sunburns are a common occurrence, and most people recover completely without any long-term effects. However, there are a few rare cases where people develop swelling and redness after a sunburn. If you experience any of these symptoms,
I have a question? How long does the hardness and swelling of a blown vein last from using drug usage? What gets the swelling out and what the rednes?
A few hours.
I recently had a tetanus shot and the nurse told me that my arm would be sore for up to three days.
6 hours
The redness from a deer fly bite can last anywhere from a few hours to a day or two. Some people react differently to bites and take longer to recover from them.
Following tooth extraction swelling can last up to a week.
It depends on how hard the bite was! Usually 1-2hrs
No, and it never was. The tetanus vaccine only contains human immunoglobulin. There is something called tetanus anti-toxin that can be produced in horses or sheep. If you have a puncture wound and have never been immunized or it has been over 10 years since your last booster shot, your doctor may give you a shot of this antitoxin. It's like giving antivenom for a snakebite. This anti-toxin shot is NOT the same as the tetanus vaccine. It doesn't last long in your system, so it does not confer tetanus immunity.
Lockjaw also known as Tetanus is a serious bacterial infection that effects your body's central nervous system. To get the tetanus bacteria it has to enter your body through open wounds. Symptoms of it can last 3-4 weeks but complete recovery can take several months.
You should get a tetanus shot every 10 years. If you work in an environment where you are more likely to get injured, you should get them every 5 years. If you get a wound that is deep or gets dirty then you should get a tetanus shot if it has been more than 5 years since your last one.
Reactions normally last less than one day but it depends on how allergic the person is and how and how long they were exposed. Contact your doctor if you become worried.
