Can Tetanus Be Caused By Cutting The Face With An Old Razor?
I was intentionally cutting my face with an old razor kind of dirty over the same spots on my face deep enough to cause blood when it would start to heal I would do it again.Never looked like I had an infection.I had night sweats and grinding my jaw all the time and I have swollen lymph nodes under arm and in groin.Could Thisbe the cause of tetanus?
