Hello, my hand touched the rust on the chair, then scratched a acne on my ass and bled. Will I be infected with tetanus? Is it necessary to break the cold needle?
Condition Analysis:
According to the patient's description, tetanus is usually not caused. However, rust can contain other bacteria, which may cause secondary bacterial infection in case of acne, so it should be cleaned or disinfected. If acne is only superficial, it will not be infected with tetanus, and there is no need to break the cold needle
Condition Analysis:
Generally, it will not cause tetanus. There is no need to break the cold, which may cause infection. You can disinfect it with Iodophor and hydrogen peroxide. Diet should avoid eating some greasy, spicy and irritating food. You can eat more fresh vegetables and fruits.
Condition Analysis:
If the buttocks are broken and bleeding at the local infection site, I don't think it will directly lead to the occurrence of tetanus under normal circumstances, because the wound is relatively superficial, and the tetanus disease is caused by the infection of tetanus bacteria, which belong to anaerobic bacteria and have no favorable conditions for survival in the superficial skin environment, So I don't think it's necessary
Condition Analysis:
Theoretically, there is a possibility of tetanus infection, but in practice, the probability of tetanus infection is very small because the contact time is relatively short and the number is relatively small. Therefore, in this case, it is recommended to clean and disinfect the local wound. To avoid the above situation again in the future, you can go to the lesion center.
