"Use your strength to open your mouth, use all your might."
Rushing to the bedside, Liu Banxia said nervously.
The patient tried hard, but his mouth didn't open wide.
"Director Liu, what's wrong? Is it a stroke?" the patient's wife asked worriedly.
"Hold on, let me check his neck," said Liu Banxia.
After speaking, Liu Banxia reached behind the patient's neck. Feeling the tense neck muscles, he sighed internally.
"Go get a tetanus immunoglobulin," Liu Banxia said solemnly.
Upon hearing his words, Liu Yiqing was stunned but still turned and ran out.
She hadn't expected the patient to have tetanus, which explained why he couldn't open his mouth. One of the symptoms of tetanus is spasms, often affecting the jaw muscles first.
"Director Liu, is this... is this tetanus?" the patient asked, panicked.
Liu Banxia nodded, "Judging by your symptoms, it should be tetanus. Didn't you say you pierced the blister with a needle? Not a sewing needle?"
