Tetany is a condition characterized by involuntary muscle contractions due to low levels of calcium in the blood, while tetanus is a bacterial infection that causes severe muscle stiffness and spasms. Tetany is typically caused by low calcium levels, while tetanus is caused by the bacteria Clostridium tetani.
