Suggest Treatment For Stenotrophomonas Maltophilia Infection
Is it possible to get stenotrophomonas maltophilia from rowing and getting splashed in the ear. It actually caused a staph infection and numerous rounds of drops and meds? Also another possibility from being highly allergic to poison ivy and getting hit in the ear by a branch that was entwined in poison ivy.

dear sir thanks for posting your query to hcm .
it is possible to get strenotophomonas infection, as it could be found in environment but you need to confirm by doing culture and sensitivity examination of your ear discharge.
strenotophomonas is a gram negative organism treated by using appropriate antibiotics .
however I suggest to consult ENT surgeon for proper treatment .
