Eat nuts struggling, suffering from this? (7)
I believe the answer is:
tetanus
'suffering from this?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'eat nuts struggling' is the wordplay.
'struggling' indicates an anagram (the letters struggle or wriggle into a new form).
'eat'+'nuts'='eatnuts'
'eatnuts' anagrammed gives 'TETANUS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tetanus that I've seen before include "Disease known as lockjaw from rabid dog bite" , "Bacterial disease" , "health problem" , "Disease causing muscular spasms" , "Infection of the central nervous system" .)
