Bacteria Infection

Ethan has strangely got a rare bacteria infection on his body which resulted in a really rotten state on his elbow and wrist. PaPa and Mummy thought it was just a bad blister initially and kept asking Grandma and maid if they were aware that Ethan has touched any hot stuff which resulted in that blister

The blister subsequently got deteriorated and spreaded into a big infected area on Ethan's elbow. As it happened over the long weekend on National Day, PaPa and Mummy didn't think it was too serious and left it unhealed over that 3 long days with awful pus.

When we brought the poor lil fellow to Dr Sim on Tues morning, Dr Sim told us that we should have brought him to A&E on Sat/Sun before that was spread to other parts of the body. Nontheless, it was a lesson learnt and it took Ethan abt 2 weeks to have this wound recovered (ex-pigmentation, which I think probably takes abt a few months to fade)

This is how bad it was:
the new spots on his face which haven't turn into the rotten stage
