Risk of death after being bitten by mosquitoes what to do after being bitten by mosquitoes

If you are accidentally bitten by a mosquito, the consequences may be very serious. A few days ago, a British woman was bitten by a mosquito while drying clothes in her garden. Unexpectedly, the next day, her feet swelled like a 'tree trunk', and the affected area gradually turned black and swollen. Finally, it evolved into necrotizing fasciitis. When the woman was on the operating table, her heart stopped suddenly for 3 minutes and almost died.

It is reported that Kim Robinson, a 25-year-old woman with four children, said in an interview that she was bitten by mosquitoes while doing housework in the garden a few days ago. At that time, she felt severe pain in her ankle, but she didn't care much. Until the next day, her leg was swollen as thick as a tree trunk, and her condition not only didn't improve, but worsened, and the wound not only began to expand, Even black, so painful that she couldn't walk at all. So she went to the hospital immediately.

Doctors diagnosed Robinson with necrotizing fasciitis and must immediately operate on the infected site. Unexpectedly, during the operation, Robinson's heart suddenly stopped for 3 minutes, because sepsis caused her heart to stop and her lungs collapsed. She recalled the situation at that time and said, 'I know I died in the operation, and I'm afraid of it'. After the operation, Robinson was unconscious for 5 days and woke up. He had to learn how to speak, walk and use his hands again.

Although the operation process was quite smooth, Robinson not only left a large scar, but also developed emphysema and traumatic stress syndrome. After five weeks in hospital, she had to undergo another operation. Finally, she sighed and said, 'it's really extreme. Everything starts with being bitten by mosquitoes'. Now her children's arms are always equipped with anti mosquito liquid to avoid similar events like her.
