Mt. Vernon Tetanus Vaccines at AFC Urgent Care
AFC Mt. Vernon provides on-site tetanus shots that protect against Clostridium tetani, the bacterial cause of tetanus, also called lockjaw. When a patient becomes infected, they experience very painful muscle contractions or spasms. The neck and jaw muscles tense up so much that it makes it difficult to open the mouth and causes potential difficulty with breathing.
Tetanus has no cure, so it's imperative to have an up-to-date tetanus shot. Schedule your consultation now or walk right in!
