hello
Thanks for your querry in HCM
Morganella is normal flora of the gut and many a times isolated from the skin, particularly from the moist areas of a normal immunologically intact individual. But since patients with malignancy are compromised, many a times the normal flora behave as a pathogen.

With reference to Morganella, it usually a very sensitive organism and drug resistance is a less common phenomenon observed with this organism. Chances are more in favour of you getting cured from the infection.
The most effective advice at this time for you will be to maintain proper hygiene.

I hope your doubts are resolved Get back to us , if more doubts
