Hello dear,

Thank you for your contact to health care magic.

I read and understand your concern.

I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.

As the infection is severe it is likely that the infection is spread in the blood circulation.

I advice you should do blood culture and sensitivity. Once the report received taking the drug as per the report will cure the infection readily.

If you have placed the line in the pancreas fluid from the line can be cultured and drugs can be taken as per the report.

This method will be very effective and can cure the infection very rapidly.

Feed them with high protein and carbohydrate diet.

Good hygiene maintainence is key in infection control.

I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.

Thank you,
