Question
How can one alleviate headaches and throat inflammation caused by tetanus immune globulin?
Answer
Tetanus antitoxin is used to combat the toxins produced by Clostridium tetani, while immunoglobulin is an antibody similar to that produced by vaccination, used to combat the growth and reproduction of Clostridium tetani. Since your wound is small and not deep, it is less conducive to the growth of Clostridium tetani, so you are unlikely to contract tetanus in this situation, which you can be reassured about.
