My foot was punctured by a rusty nail. I didn't notice. When I got up the next morning, I saw a little pus inside. Will I get tetanus?

The infection route of tetanus is mainly deep tissue infection. Generally, you won't get tetanus if you cut a wound, but only if something rusty goes deep into your skin. Because Clostridium tetanus is an anaerobic bacterium, it cannot spread in the air. You just punctured your skin, so don't worry.

Have tetanus symptoms, such as

In the prodromal stage, there are fatigue, headache, stiff tongue base, inconvenient swallowing and stiff head and neck rotation.

Typical manifestations are persistent muscle tension contraction and paroxysmal convulsions. At first, it was inconvenient to chew, and the masticatory muscles were tense, with rigidity and pain, difficulty in opening mouth, wry smile, dysphagia, stiff neck, inverted horn arch, dyspnea, nervousness and even suffocation.

Slight stimulation (strong light, wind, sound and vibration, etc.). ) can induce convulsions.

So, I don't think you have a good chance of getting tetanus. It's normal to be a little dizzy. Thank you, please adopt!
