The causes of tetanus diseases are puncture wounds. However, there are only specific bacteria that cause tetanus when they get into your bloodstream. These microorganisms are found in rust, soil, animal waste, and other related materials. If this ever happens to you, seek immediate medical attention to get a tetanus shot and have the contaminated skin tissue removed.
