> Health warning amid rise in 'flesh-eating' vulva infections

Leading UK doctors have sounded the alarm over an increase in severe flesh-eating infections that carry a significant risk of death. In a recent report, medical professionals highlighted concerns about Necrotising fasciitis, commonly referred to as "flesh-eating disease".

This rare but dangerous infection can occur when bacteria enter the body through a wound. It can manifest on any part of the body where skin or tissue is compromised, including genital areas, and requires immediate hospital treatment.
