Headache
Headache is another possible symptom of tetanus. This is because this condition is caused by an infection, which would trigger a headache as a result of fever or increased temperatures. In addition, tetanus would interfere with the nerves located in your nervous system and trigger pain around this area. The headache would begin a few days after the initial infection and last for up to 1 week. While some OTC drugs might be effective in alleviating the pain, the effects are just temporary. Thus, it is better to seek long-term treatment from your doctor. [9]
