intermittent tetanus
Intermittent tetanus is a rare neurological condition characterized by periodic episodes or intervals of tetanic muscle contractions, which could cause stiffness or spasms affecting different muscle groups. The spasms can be severe and may be caused by a toxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium tetani. The condition 'tetanus' is often attributed to the infection from the bacterium commonly found in soil and animal excrement. 'Intermittent' indicates that the symptoms are not consistently present but appear and disappear over time.
