Tetanus [TET-nus] is a condition that affects the nervous system and causes painful, uncontrolled muscle spasms.
It is an anaerobic bacterium, Clostridium tetani. It can produce muscle spasms ("lockjaw"), severe illness or even death, if contracted. Thus, it is important to stay current on tetanus vaccine boosters (every 10 years). Watch out for those rusty nails, and do not eat from cans in which the lid has popped upwards (indicating the gas release from the C. tetani bacterium).
