I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. If you don't receive proper treatment, the toxin's effect on respiratory muscles can interfere with breathing. If this happens, you may die of suffocation. A tetanus infection may develop after almost any type of skin injury, major or minor. This includes cuts, punctures, crush injuries, burns and animal bites. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
