Tetanus

A nail becomes rusty by exposure to the weather. If it has been exposed to the weather, it has also been exposed to germs. These germs may include the very dangerous tetanus bacillus (clostridium tetani). So, to save you from a possibly fatal illness, you can get a tetanus vaccination.

You will be fine after 10 minutes, but the section of the arm will be sore for a few days.

Tetanus shots are really easy. I just wear a racer back tank with really cool roomy armholes. The doctor usually asks if I'm right or left handed-I'm right handed, so he puts the tetanus on my left arm. I just sit bravely on the patients table in shorts and tank top and put my left hand on my hip so the doctor can easily see my deltoid muscle just under my skin up high by my shoulder. The doctor dabs my tan sleeveless muscly left arm with alcohol up high by my shoulder-the alcohol really feels cool on my warm skin. Then he points the tetanus needle straight down at my left arm up high by my shoulder. I feel a quick stick like a dart as the needle goes deep in my left deltoid muscle. Then I feel a hard push and a deep tight muscly ache as the doctor puts the tetanus on my muscle. Then he pulls the needle out of my muscle, and it's all over. I just feel a tight muscly ache in my left arm up by my shoulder for a day or so. But in a tank top with roomy arm holes I have alot of free easy arm movement so I move my left arm as much as I can to work the tetanus into my muscle. It only takes the doctor about 5 seconds to stick the needle in my muscle,push the tetanus on my muscle, and pull the needle out. Tetanus is good for 5 years or so,which is really great cuz I hate getting tetanus shots! Omigod! they hurt!

No...a tetanus shot will not prevent rabies. Tetanus is a bacterial infection spread by manure and soil entering a cut. Rabies is a virus. It is spread by blood or saliva from an infected animal. There are rabies prevention vaccines for people if you work in a high risk environment.

Get a new one. They are only good for 10 years and usually the only side effect is a very sore arm. You can get tetanus even from a good jab with a needle, so don't risk it.

No. Rabies is very dangerous, but it cannot be considered armed.

Clostridium tetani is in the form of a rod, or bacillus. it has a rounded ball at the top. I hope this helped..

The tetanus bacteria is the same size as a horse

You would need a miracle

Tetanus is caused by the bacteria called Clostridium tetani. Clostridium tetani is often found in soil, dust and animal waste. Tetanus is contracted through a cut or wound that becomes contaminated with Clostridium tetani bacteria. The bacteria can get in through even a tiny pinprick or scratch, but deep puncture wounds or cuts like those made by nails or knives are especially susceptible to infection with tetanus. Tetanus is not transmitted from person to person.

Yes, if you get cut by metal and dont have a tetanus shot, you should get one right away.

It depends upon the type of injury, and upon whether or not you have received a tetanus vaccine within the past 10 years. (1) According to the American College of Emergency Physicians, you should seek medical attention immediately if you have an injury that is "deep and dirty" and if you haven't received a tetanus vaccine within the past 10 years. (2) If you have a deep or dirty injury and have received a tetanus vaccine within the past 10 years, you should seek medical attention within 24 hours. Most physicians will want to give you an injection of tetanus immune globulin, a fast-acting protection against infection that is superior to the ordinary vaccine but won't work if it isn't received promptly. You DO NOT want to get tetanus; it's a nasty disease even if it doesn't kill you! There's no cure, and the medical treatment essentially involves trying to keep you alive while the disease runs its painful course. There are people who say that getting medical help within 72 hours is soon enough. There are people claiming to be doctors who say that tetanus vaccinations are neither helpful, necessary nor advisable. There is widespread agreement in the mainstream medical community that (1) and (2) above are the best advice you can get.

The current recommendation is to receive a tetanus shot every ten years.

Yes, you can administer both tetanus toxoid and tetanus antitoxin to a horse with a wire cut on the same day. Tetanus toxoid is used for long-term immunity, while tetanus antitoxin provides immediate passive immunity. It's important to follow proper veterinary guidelines to ensure the horse's safety and effectiveness of the treatment. Always consult with a veterinarian for specific recommendations based on the horse's condition.

if previous dose date known booster dose every 5 th year.

A pathogen is a 'disease causing organism' so all infections are caused by pathogens. Tetanus is caused by the Clostridium tetani bacterium

It depends mainly on where the razor was used and how serious the cut is. for example if the razor has been anywhere where there may have been harmful bacteria.

The simple answer is that you could get tetanus.

Tetanus is a serious disease that attacks your nervous system. It causes locked jaw, neck stiffness, difficulty swallowing, rigidity of the stomach, muscle spasms, seizure-like activity, and death in about 10-20% of patients.

It is common in soil and spread through bacteria that enters the body through cuts in the skin, so you don't need to be near someone who is infected to get the disease.

I believe the answer to be fused (complete) tetanus

A puncture.

Tetanus is everywhere, but frequently happens around densely populated regions in hot, damp climates with fertile land.

Unfused tetanus-"the relaxation time between successive twitches will get shorter as the strength of contraction increases in amplitude."

On the other hand,

Fused tetanus-"Smooth, sustained muscle contraction."

Tetanus is caused by a common bacteria found in the soil. It can be contracted by the bacteria entering the body from a wound. Such as stepping on a rusty nail.
