Answer:

Botulism is a rare, but life threatening infection caused by the bacteria Clostridium botulinum which spreads through contaminated food, soil, or through open wounds. Ingestion of bacterial spores and toxins are the main reasons behind the symptoms. Symptoms vary depending on the type of botulism. Medications and infected tissue removal methods are available to remove the bacterial toxins.
