Frequently asked questions about Tetglob Products
Frequently asked questions about Tetanus Immunoglobulin
Q. How is tetanus caused?
Tetanus is caused by a toxin (poison) produced by the bacterium Clostridium tetani. The C. tetani bacteria cannot grow in the presence of oxygen. They produce spores that are very difficult to kill as they are resistant to heat and many chemical agents.
Q. How does tetanus spread?
C. tetani spores can be found in soil, dust and manure of many household and farm animals and humans. The bacteria usually enter the human body in the presence of anaerobic (low oxygen) conditions through an open wound or puncture in the skin . These are the only favourable conditions for C. tetani to grow. It must be noted that tetanus does not spread from person to person.
Q. How long does it take to show signs of tetanus after being exposed?
It may take around 3 to 21 days for the first symptoms to develop (incubation period). On an average, the symptoms usually appear on day 8. However, the time depends upon the site of infection which means if the injury site is far from the central nervous system, the longer will be the incubation period. The rate of risk with tetanus increases with a shorter incubation period.
Q. What are the symptoms of tetanus?
An early symptom of tetanus includes spasm of the jaw muscles which is then followed by stiffness of the neck, difficulty in swallowing and stiffness of the abdominal muscles. Other signs include fever, sweating, elevated blood pressure and rapid heart rate. Spasms often occur, which may last for several minutes and continue for 3–4 weeks. Complete recovery, if it occurs, may take months altogether.
Q. Is tetanus fatal?
Yes, tetanus can be fatal. In recent years, tetanus has been fatal in about 10% to 20% of reported cases.
Q. Is tetanus curable?
No, there is no cure for tetanus once a person develops symptoms, just supportive treatment and management of complications. The best treatment of tetanus is its prevention through immunization.
