Hi,
I have gone through your query and I can understand your concerns.
Enterococcus is a bacteria present in the digestive tract.The most common cause of transmission is poor hygiene.Unhealthy sexual practice can cause infection.So I suggest you to correct phimosis.Swimming in a lake generally do not cause infection.
Enterococcus infection may become severe because of its resistance to usual antibiotics.
You have to consult a physician as soon as possible,early treatment have better outcome.
Hope this helps.
Regards.
