This bacillus causes the deadly disease called as tetanus. You have a smiling patient at your hand. This deadly smile is called as risus sardonicus. Shortly afterwards the patient gets convulsions. In between you have spasm of muscles. Which differentiates the disease from botulism poison, in which you have no intermittent muscle spasm. Any sensory stimulus will cause the patient to give violent convulsion. Stimulus may be in the form of light or sound, apart from touch. If you can maintain patient under expert nursing care for three weeks, he will recover completely.
