Patient's question:
The child was just born a few days ago and accidentally cut their hand. In this situation, will they get tetanus? How should one judge and treat it to avoid the occurrence of this disease in the future?Doctor's answer:
If this situation occurs, a tetanus shot should be given for the first time to prevent the disease from occurring. The initial adverse symptoms are usually fever. Avoid this bacterium from invading the human body, causing some growth and reproduction, which can easily lead to some acute infections. During this period, children's immunity is relatively low, and it must be handled with caution to avoid another situation. Some infections can worsen the condition, so attention should be paid to the intake of nutrients.
