    Tetany-How is it caused?
    Tetany is caused due to continuous contraction of muscle due to low serum levels of calcium. But sufficient ca influx into the cells is required for the depolarization which causes contraction,so how can low levels of Ca can cause depolarization and contraction in tetany?Please explain.
    Thank you
