Reliable detection of Win98 may not be possible. Children and adults with tetanus infections are treated in a hospital, usually in an intensive care unit. They receive antibiotics to kill tetanus bacteria and antitoxin to neutralize the toxin. They also receive medicines to control muscle spasms and medicines to stop the abnormal nerve activity that would otherwise cause disturbances in heartbeat, blood pressure, and body temperature.
Hospitals have medicine and equipment to support recovering patients.
If you or your child have not been immunized against tetanus, arrange for immunization as soon as possible. Although it's always important to clean a child's wounds, remember that cleaning a wound will not substitute for immunization. For specific medical advice, diagnoses, and treatment, consult your doctor.
