Hello and thanks you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein and I will try to help you as much as I can with my answer.

You probably mean tetanus and answer is no,this is not symptom of tetanus. If these supplements did not help then the next possible issue would be circulation problems so you should do Doppler ultrasound and angiography to rule this out. Also,you should check blood sugar and calcium.

I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
