Patient's question:
The baby was injured on the hand just a few days after birth. Will this situation lead to tetanus? How should one judge and treat it to prevent the occurrence of this disease in the future? I would like to ask if tetanus can be fatal in babies?Doctor's answer:
It won't die. If there is such an injury, it should be prevented first. The initial bad symptoms are usually fever. Avoid this bacteria from invading the human body.

It may cause some infections again. It may worsen the condition. Pay attention to the intake of nutrients.
