她在一次海滩旅行后死于食肉细菌。现在她的家人想要警告其他人

A woman died after cutting her leg at a beach in Florida, and her family is raising awareness about the flesh-eating bacteria that killed her.

一名女子在佛罗里达州的海滩上割伤腿后死亡，她的家人正在提高人们对杀死她的食肉细菌的认知。

Lynn Fleming, 77, fell and cut herself while walking on a beach two weeks ago on Anna Maria Island.

两周前，77岁的琳恩·弗莱明(Lynn Fleming)在安娜玛丽亚岛上的海滩上散步时摔倒并割伤了自己

"There was a little depression that she couldn't see because it was under the water," said Wade Fleming, her son, to FOX 13 in Tampa.

她的儿子韦德·弗莱明(Wade Fleming)在坦帕接受福克斯13频道(FOX 13)采访时说:"有一点小坑，她看不见，因为它在水下。"

"She fell into it, came out with a little three-quarters-inch cut, a bump on her leg. It was just a small cut, didn't think much of it. We got the swelling down, but it just kept bleeding."

她掉了进去，结果被割了一个四分之三英寸的小伤口，腿上有个肿块。只是个小伤口，没怎么在意。我们消肿了，但还是不停地流血。"

In the days following her fall, Lynn Fleming's condition worsened, according to daughter-in-law Traci Fleming.

据林·弗莱明的儿媳特蕾西·弗莱明说，在她摔倒后的几天里，她的病情恶化了。

Later, when Lynn Fleming was found unconscious in her home, she was rushed to the emergency room by ambulance and diagnosed with necrotizing fasciitis, a rare but deadly bacterial infection that kills the body's soft tissue.

后来，林恩·弗莱明(Lynn Fleming)被发现在家中失去知觉，她被救护车送往急诊室，被诊断出坏死性筋膜炎，这是一种罕见但致命的细菌感染，会杀死身体的软组织。

It is the second case of necrotizing fasciitis reported at a Florida beach in the past month.

这是过去一个月在佛罗里达海滩报告的第二例坏死性筋膜炎。

Earlier This Month: Girl, 12, diagnosed with flesh-eating bacteria after Florida beach trip

Causes: A rise in cases of flesh-eating bacteria may be linked to climate change, doctors say

本月早些时候:12岁的女孩在佛罗里达海滩旅行后被诊断出食肉细菌

原因:医生说，食肉细菌病例的增加可能与气候变化有关

"On top of this she has suffered from two strokes and has suffered from kidney failure," Traci Fleming wrote in a June 26 post on Facebook, where she chronicled her mother-in-law's condition. "Her entire body is septic."

特蕾西·弗莱明6月26日在脸书上写道:"除此之外，她还患了两次中风和肾衰竭。"她在脸书上记录了婆婆的病情。"她的整个身体都在化脓。"

Fleming published a photo to Facebook on June 27 with news of her mother-in-law's death.

6月27日，弗莱明在脸书上发布了一张她婆婆去世的照片。

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention say one in three peoplewho contract the flesh-eating bacteria die. Since 2010, there have been between 700 and 1,200 cases annually, though the CDC says that's likely an underestimation.

美国疾病控制和预防中心(Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)表示，三分之一感染食肉细菌的人会死亡。自2010年以来，每年有700至1200例病例，不过美国疾病控制与预防中心说，这个数字可能被低估了。

Although deadly, a bacterial infection like necrotizing fasciitis can be prevented if wounds are given good care, according to the CDC.

美国疾病控制与预防中心表示，如果伤口得到良好的护理，坏死性筋膜炎等细菌感染虽然是致命的，但却是可以预防的。

"They can be treated," Wade Fleming said. "You get the open wound while playing at the beach, watch it, take care of it."

韦德·弗莱明说:"他们可以得到治疗。"当你在沙滩上玩耍时，你可能有开放性的伤口，观察它，小心对待它。"

The CDC recommends cleaning all minor cuts and injuries that break the skin (like blisters and scrapes) with soap and water and then covering them with clean, dry bandages until they heal.

美国疾病控制与预防中心建议，用肥皂和水清洗皮肤上所有轻微的割伤和损伤(如水泡和擦伤)，然后用干净干燥的绷带包扎，直到伤口愈合。

If it seems like more than a minor cut, the CDC recommends seeing a doctor.

如果伤口看起来不只是小伤口，疾控中心建议你去看医生。

Early symptoms of necrotizing fasciitis include swelling, severe pain and fever.

坏死性筋膜炎的早期症状包括肿胀、剧烈疼痛和发烧。

"Maybe if she was diagnosed a little earlier, you know, maybe we'd be sitting here talking to my mom without a leg, but you know, with a life," Wade Fleming said.

韦德弗莱明(Wade Fleming)说:"如果她能早一点被诊断出来，你知道，也许我们就能坐在这里和我没有腿的妈妈聊天，但你知道，她有生命。"

Tampa Hospital Emergency Medicine's Dr. Jason Wilson told FOX 13 that however scary this disease is, people contract it very rarely.

坦帕医院急诊医生杰森·威尔逊告诉福克斯13频道，无论这种疾病多么可怕，人们很少会感染它。

"Most people who go into the water will never experience this," he said.

"大多数下水的人都不会有这样的经历，"他说。

I clean all wounds with soap and water followed by hydrogen peroxide. Signs and symptoms of infection are pain, warmth at the wound, fever, redness at the wound, swelling at the wound. Pain to me seems the best indicator.

我用肥皂和水清洗所有伤口，然后用过氧化氢清洗。感染的迹象和症状是疼痛，伤口发热，发烧，伤口发红，伤口肿胀。对我来说，痛苦似乎是最好的指示器。

Growing up at the beach our parents always told us if we had a cut that the salt water was the best thing for it. I always thought flesh eating disease was a fresh water issue. This is scary!

在海边长大的父母总是告诉我们，如果我们有伤口，盐水是最好的选择。我一直认为食肉病是淡水问题。这是可怕的!

You're parents were correct, despite the naysayers here. It's what happens to the wound after you leave the salt water. when infection from the sand and earth get into it after the saltwater, really bad things can attach, invade and grow rampantly if not cleaned!

你们的父母是对的，尽管这里有很多反对者。这是你离开盐水后伤口的情况。当来自沙子和泥土的感染进入海水后，如果不清理干净，真的很糟糕的东西可以附着，入侵和蔓延!

Millions of people at the beach every day without issues, it's pretty rare.

每天都有数以百万计的人在海滩上安然无恙，这是非常罕见的。

When going to the beach, or anywhere for that matter, take a first aid kit along with you. I carry one in my car. It's always good practice to thoroughly clean and bandage a wound right away. Even a small wound. Never take a chance on infection of any kind.

当你去海滩或其他地方时，随身携带一个急救箱。我的车里有一个。立即彻底清洗伤口并用绷带包扎总是好的做法。即使是一个小伤口。千万不要冒任何感染的风险。

A relative of mine died of this year after scratching her leg on a dishwasher in her home. She was overweight and likely diabetic. Standard antibiotics didn't work and it took over fast. Within a week she had to have her leg amputated and though they thought they got all of the infection she died a day or two later. My take away is that it's important to clean cuts after they happen and covered and seek medical assistance ASAP if your body is reacting abnormally after a cut. Most people recover with this stuff not being any deal at all, but there can be exceptions like I just cited.

今年，我的一个亲戚在家里的洗碗机上划伤了腿，不幸去世。她超重，可能患有糖尿病。标准的抗生素不起作用，很快就起作用了。不到一周，她的腿就被截肢了，尽管他们认为自己感染了所有的病毒，但她还是在一两天后去世了。我的观点是，如果你的身体在被割伤后出现异常反应，重要的是在割伤发生并覆盖伤口后进行清理，并尽快寻求医疗救助。大多数人在没有任何交易的情况下恢复，但也有例外，就像我刚才提到的。

I've pretty much written off ever going into a natural body of water again. Way too many of these stories nowadays. Sigh.

我几乎已经不再相信会再进入天然水域了。现在这样的故事太多了。叹息。
