Description

Tetanus, also known as lockjaw, is a bacterial infection caused by Clostridium tetani and characterized by muscle spasms. In the most common type, the spasms begin in the jaw, and then progress to the rest of the body. Each spasm usually lasts for a few minutes. Spasms occur frequently for three to four weeks. Some spasms may be severe enough to fracture bones. Other symptoms of tetanus may include fever, sweating, headache, trouble swallowing, high blood pressure, and a fast heart rate. Onset of symptoms is typically 3 to 21 days following infection. Recovery may take months; about 10% of cases prove to be fatal.

ధనుర్వాతము ప్రాణాంతకమైన వ్యాధులలో ఒకటి. ఈ వ్యాధి 'క్లాస్ట్రీడియం టెటని' అనే బాక్టీరియా వలన కలుగుతుంది. దవడలు బిగిసే ప్రధాన లక్షణం గల వ్యాధి కనుక దీనిని 'లాక్-జా' (lockjaw) అని వ్యవహరిస్తారు. తీవ్రస్థాయిలో వ్యాధిగ్రస్తులు ధనుస్సు లేదా విల్లు లాగా వంగిపోతారు. అందువల్లనే ఈ వ్యాధికి ధనుర్వాతము అనే పేరు వచ్చింది.
