A member asked:
Is it a sign of tetanus if i get this uncomfortable feeling on the under side of my jaw when i swallow? it does not always happen
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: That's definitely not a sign of tetanus. A sign of tetanus is that you get extremely sick, go to the hospital, and maybe die. An occasional uncomfortable feeling is not tetanus. And aren't you vaccinated, anyway?
