A disease caused by microbes that enter open wounds in the skin, it causes the limb to have a bluish hue and become numb and useless. If not treated within twenty-four hours by oede, the limb will become gangrenous and will lead to the loss of the limb or if left untreated, death. The first symptom is usually numbness in the left arm, followed by paralysis and then within twenty four hours, tissue death. It can also be treated with Rendalim’s elixir.
