Suggest Remedy For E.aerogenes Infections In Leg
I was diagnosed to have E. Aerogenes last year September. I stopped taking medicines because my lungs are getting weak. And I get disappointed meeting my doctor and telling me the same thing. I still have a wound at my leg. I want to know what's the best ointment to dress my wound and antibiotics that would make my wound close.Rose 24, Philippines
