I was dancing and a piece of this chair fell and it was rusted and i stepped on it and i got cut. And my mom told me to go wash my feet very good. Is it true that rust can make you go blind?Also can rust kill you? (luckily i got a tentnise shot before this. The real question is what can rust do to you if you dont have a tentnise shot?

you can get lock jaw. you'd be talking or something and then your jaw just gets stuck. i think to losen it up you have to go to the doctor and they heat up your muscles, to allow them to relax.

Rust is inert and can only irritate you.
The problem is the dirt associated with the rust
can carry germs which can hurt you.
Since you've got the tetanus shot, and washed
well, you're probably OK.
Just watch that cut and keep it clean.
If it gets red and sore and doesn't get
better soon, see a doctor.

tetanus shots are to prevent an illness called "lock jaw" which used to be deadly but modern medicines can cure. its still not a good thing to get

If you don't have a tentnise shot you get tentnise XD.
But don't worry, I'm sure you'll be fine.
