I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
Rust doesn't cause tetanus, but stepping on a nail might if you're not immunized. In fact, any damage to the skin, even burns and blisters, allows tetanus-causing bacteria to enter the body. Tetanus is not as common as it once was. Still, tetanus patients have only about a 50-50 chance of recovering.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
