Popis: | Awareness of infections which are transmitted between animals and humans have been given prominence following the (COVID-19) pandemic. The Orf infection in humans is rare. Recognition of Orf lesions avoids misdiagnosing and incorrect treatment. We present a case of a Scottish-farmer with pain and discomfort from a lesion on her finger. |
