I am always paranoid to anything that makes me scared of. My health anxiety is my surname I guess. I don't know how to handle this. Some days I'm good but more often is I'm at my lowest.
So, now my fear is about Tetanus! Last Saturday (July 2), I texted a Dentist who was referred by a friend of mine to do a dental retainer on my teeth. He said that He can do home service. So we had the procedure done at home. He was measuring the size of my mouth using a blue gum something that was put into my mouth for 10mins I think. Then he's busy doing the retainer. Later did I know upon looking on the apparatus that he used to make the plate shine was not hygienic. I mean it has dust or something rust?!? It looks like a drill that makes the plate shiny or to make it form better (sorry I don't know that apparatus). He never extracted any of my tooth, nor bleed. He washed the plate with water after he tried it on my mouth. My concern is I have a broken tooth which has a laceration. Sometimes when I brush my teeth it bleed. But during that time of his procedure, he didn't touched that area. I'm thinking what if the bacteria travels and went through that laceration? :/ I am really messed up. I have a flu right now., and sometimes my muscle twitch.. But I get twitch even before that incident. I read google that once symptoms will appear it can't be cured? Just like rabies! T_T God forbid! Sometimes when I think of Lockjaw,, feels like my jaw is really closing! Thank you so much for your time in reading my post.
