lockjaw
when i fell off the quad in mexico, i thought my wounds were okay but apparently they got infected. i now have tetanus which can lead to death if not treated. last night i yawned and my mouth got stuck open (called lockjaw).
the jaw bones clinked and snapped and wouldn't let me close my mouth. i was completely stuck. my face looked all sideways and fucked up. i went to the ER but while i was there it snapped closed, then when i opened my mouth again it struck open. after about thirty min. it closed again, and they released me without treatment (they didn't know there was any correlation about my previous injury with my knee). when i got home, it was spazzing again. i thought i was going to have to go back to the er but it closed again after five minutes.
tetanus is crazy, it controls the central nervous system and can spread to my entire body. i go to the doctor first thing in the morning. always clean your wounds very well and get your tetatunus shot. i dropped out of school so i think i missed mine. well that's my story.
