You'd certainly have to amputate a limb.
There's another story of a woman named June Baxter, retired legal secretary, 83 years old, simple cut on her leg again.
The next day, her daughter comes over with their dog.
The dog licks the wound.
The following day, the woman is unwell.
And she ended up dying nine days later.
And they did culture Pastorella maltosida from this wound.
So now there is only one animal out there that has a dirtier mouth than cats and dogs.
Me.
Me.
Humans.
Yeah, absolutely.
So don't go licking wounds.
And if you get bit by somebody, that's a serious threat too.
you should probably go to the doctor.
And I mean, I had a friend of mine that was playing indoor soccer, did a simple slide tackle, developed an abrasion on his calf, no big deal.
A couple of days later, he's in the hospital.
He ended up recovering fine, but they almost had to amputate his leg due to a flesh eating bacteria that he picked up.
So basically go to the doctor.
If there's a problem and you're not sure, ask your doctor.
