How To Treat Proteus Penneri On Armpit?
My wife has Hydradinitis Supperativa (sp?) and recently started having some kind of infection in her armpit. It has been diagnosed (now twice) as Proteus Penneri. Her doctor said he has never seen this on an external wound, but usually only internally in the intestinal tract. They have had her on 2 different antibiotics now, and it's not gone, is this normal?
