I am not sure what you are asking exactly but a vector is an amimal or an insect that transmits the pathogen responsible for the necrotizing fasciitis. Think of it as a vehicle the germ travels on.

1. Wash daily with warm water and soap (doesn't have to be disinfectant)\n2. Change dressings at least daily or more often if draining.\n3. Warm moist compresses are beneficial. (Place a moist wash cloth in a baggie, place in microwave for about a minute, then wrap with a 2nd damp/moist towel and place over the wound.\n4. Avoid squeezing.\n5. Keep clean and covered.\n6. Keep taking antibiotic until script all gone.\n7/ checkwith your doctor if surrounding area redness, the drainage has a nasty odor or drainage or discomfort increases.

Neosporin.\n\nAnd make sure you're not moving the skin around it - you could be ripping it open again again while it's trying to heal.

you could try a heating pad. I just went to see the doctor for the same thing and now I am on a muscle relaxant. He also suggested physiotherapy. I found those new heating patches to be quite effective.

http://www.emedicine.com/oph/topic479.htm#section~differentials\nThis is only one source. There are a lot of other searches that suggest similar procedures. From all accounts so far, I have seen, that there is no cure. It suppresses the immune and causes the skin to thicken when he scratches. \n\nI have a pre-cancerous condition where I have to have laser surgery every 6 months or so. It is persistent and when it is at its apex it is extremely itchy. There is a great deal of scarring and albinism due to the repeated surgery, the skin is very thin. I have used corticosteroids and flamazine. It is used for laser skin surgery and burn victims. It really does numb the pain while it protects vulnerable tissue.\nFlamazine cream may also be used as an aid to the short-term treatment of infection in leg ulcers and pressure sores, and as an aid to the prophylaxis of infection in skin graft donor sites and extensive abrasions. I don't know if this helps any for the scratching, but it is a topical anti-bacterial as well. The link is below.\n\nHere is a site for support groups for your son and yourself. I can tell that you are not alone.\nwww.medhelp.org/HealthTopics/Dermatitis.html \nI wish you well and hope this helps a little bit. It must be unimaginably difficult to see your child suffer so.

1) Aspirin\n\n2)Penicillin\n\n3)Small Pox Vaccine\n\n4)Viagra - just kidding\n\n5)Hand Washing\n\nThe greatest I suspect is small pox vaccine.  The reason that I say that is prevention is better than a cure.  Remember the saying:  An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Generally, surgery is necessary; the necrotic tissue needs removed, and in general, there is need for antibiotic treatment on top of that.

i agree with nitehawk on this, in addition they should be using some higher antibiotics ...maybe tazobactam with piperacillin should help..\nand local antisepsis can be maintained with plain betadine bandages or powder in case of open wounds\nthe patient also should be monitored for septicemia...cuz that can be really dangerous in this patient.

There's a variety:\n\nGargle with warm salt water,\nGargle with half water, half hydrogen peroxide\nTylenol or ibuprofen\n\nIf home remedies don't cure it, see your doctor--it could be an infection like strep.

it is a bacteria,fungal or protozoan created problem. wear loose cotton clothes not those tight jeans. have plenty of water.  ensure some acidic type foods like pickles or fruits with plenty of vitamin c. ensure proper hygine. visit the doctor he will prescribe some antiseptic cream to apply. if you want a home remidy write to me.

antibiotic cream and lotion should help - neosporan- keep the leg clean and dry- and if all else fails, have it amputated and get a wooden one.

What ever you don't try to pop it.  As a homecare RN I have had to take care of people after they did that. The infection can actually be pushed back inside the body, and gets infected worst.  You should go and get it lanced by the doctor, it's called an I & D, they will open the area and drain the wound.  Sometimes it is necessay to pack the wound afterwards. You may need to be put on antibiotics too, incase you have an episode with cellulits. Cellulitis is when the cells die, because they can not get nutrients in or waste products out/ so they cells enlarge/ turn red/ get hard/ and become painful.  The abtibiotic of choice for that is Keflex, it's cheap and works very well (cost under $20). See a Dr or go to ER to get checked out.

What is the treatment of a heel spur?\nTreatment of heel spurs is the same as treatment of plantar fasciitis. Because these problems are related, the treatment is the same. The first step in the treatment of a heel spur is with short-term rest and controlling the inflammation. Here are the steps patients should take in order to cure their plantar fasciitis and heel spurs: \n\nRest\nAvoiding the precipitating activity; for example, take a few day off jogging or prolonged standing/walking. Just resting usually helps to eliminate the most severe pain, and will allow the inflammation to begin to cool down. \n\nApply Ice Packs\nIcing will help to diminish some of the symptoms and control the heel pain. Icing is especially helpful after an acute exacerbation of symptoms. \n\nExercises and Stretches\nExercises and stretches are designed to relax the tissues that surround the heel bone. Some simple exercises, performed in the morning and evening, often help patients feel better quickly. \n\nAnti-Inflammatory Medications\nAnti-inflammatory medications help to both control pain and decrease inflammation. Over-the-counter medications are usually sufficient, but prescription options are also available. \n\nShoe Inserts\nShoe inserts are often the key to successful treatment of plantar fasciitis. The shoe inserts often permit patients to continue their routine activities without pain. \n\nNight Splints\nNight splints are worn to keep the heel stretched out when you sleep. By doing so, the arch of the foot does not become contracted at night, and is hopefully not as painful in the morning. \n\n\nThese modalities alone will cure the plantar fasciitis pain in most patients. Be forewarned that the symptoms will not resolve quickly. Most patients find relief within about three months, and over 90% within one year. \n\nIf the pain does not resolve, an injection of cortisone can decrease the inflammation of plantar fasciitis. However, many physicians do not like to inject cortisone because there are potentially serious problems with cortisone injections in the heel area. The two problems that cause concern are fat pad atrophy and plantar fascial rupture. Both of these problems occur in a very small percentage of patients, but they can cause a worsening of heel pain symptoms.
