What if I told you; the soil beneath your feet, contains a bacteria that lives up to 40 years, and if contracted has a 30% of killing you…Clostridium tetani, more commonly known as tetanus; is a microscopic bacterial spore, which lives in the environment.
1. The tetanus toxin, tetanospasmin, ranks as one of the most potent microbial poison. This toxin takes the shape of bacterial spores which live within the environment around us. These spores live of the diverse elements of soil, animal excrement, house dust, operating rooms, contaminated heroin, and the human colon.
2. Once the tetanus poison, enters the body it will penetrate the outer and inner nerves of the spine. After an estimated 8 days, the relaxation of the individual’s muscles will become blocked, due to a short circuit of the nerves.
3. Tetanus can enter the body in a variety of ways; animal or insect bits, surgical wounds, the site of needle injections, burns, splinters, lesions, abrasions, ulcers, infected umbilical cords, and of course from rusty intimate objects.
4. Any individual that contracts tetanus will experience anything from spasms in the jaw, hand, arms, legs, and back. Each one of these spasms are precipitated, or brought on, by a severe noise or touch. In more intense forms of tetanus individuals will lose the ability to breathe, or even die.
5. If an individual believes, he/she may have contracted tetanus, they should rush to a hospital immediately. Upon the visit, an individual will receive two forms of medication; a medicine to eliminate the toxin and a medicine to suppress the spasms.
