Ms. W, a 21-year-old woman, came into a clinic after suffering a deep laceration on her foot while walking barefoot around her yard. The wound was cleaned, sutured, and bandaged, and she was released to return home after receiving tetanus antitoxoid. Within 72 hours, the wound area was red and swollen, the suture line was dark in color, and it was accompanied by severe throbbing pain. Ms. W had a high fever, her heart felt like it was racing, and she was finding it hard to concentrate even on simple tasks. She returned to the clinic and was immediately taken to the hospital.
