What started as a small sting turned into a horrifying medical emergency. This terrifying image shows a hand severely swollen and blackened—an advanced infection that spread rapidly within hours. Doctors believe it may have been caused by a spider or insect bite, or possibly an aggressive form of necrotizing fasciitis, also known as flesh-eating bacteria.

If you ever notice swelling, intense pain, or discoloration like this after a bite or injury, seek emergency medical help IMMEDIATELY.
Delaying treatment can lead to permanent tissue damage—or worse. Infections like this can escalate fast and may require urgent surgery to remove affected tissue.
