Man's bug bite led to flesh-eating bacteria infection

-


What started as a simple bug bite on a young man\'s knee soon turned life-threatening when the itchy bump developed into an infection with \"flesh-eating\" bacteria, according to a new report of the case. The 21-year-old man went to the emergency room after his right knee became swollen and painful, and he had trouble walking, according to the report, published in the November issue of the American Journal of Emergency Medicine. He told doctors that he had not injured his knee, but that he had gotten a bug bite there three days earlier.
