My husband, who is currently serving on a ship for the Navy somewhere for the war, is once again battling an infection that is creeping up his leg. It doesn't take much for him to get an ingrown hair or a small scratch for it to become a major infection that requires antibiotics, painkillers, and daily lancing of the wounds. And this isn't his first case. He has had cold sore on his lip, a pimple on his nose, scratch on his leg from playing soccer, all go horribly septic. And every time he goes to a military doc he get the same treatment. Antibiotics, painkillers, and squeeze out the puss each day. But they never try and figure out why this happens. He is a Testicular Cancer survivor, that was 10 years ago and last test says he is still in remission. So anyone got any ideas I can push my husband or military doc in the right direction? Thanks
