[|Human|] I have had what looks like a leg ulcer for almost 4 months. My doctor took swabs and told me i had peptostreptococcus. Which is an unusual bug in someone who has not had surgery. Therefore they think i must have contracted this from a insect bite. I have had a course of penicillin and a course of metronidonzle which didnt help. I now have a combination of both together which again does not seem to be helping. can you tell me a bit more about peptostreptococcus?
[|AI|]  Hello dear, Thank you for your contact to Chat Doctor. I read and understand your concern. I am Chat Doctor answering your concern. Peptostreptococcus is an anaerobic and aerobic bacteria. It can grow in absence and presence of oxygen. It is usually resistant to all the routinely used antibiotics, so it has not responded to metronidazole and penicillin. I advise you to take clindamycin now. This Chat Doctor.  It is potent enough to kill the peptostreptococcus. Maintaining good hygiene by frequent cleaning and
