Enterococci: Enterococci are gram positive cocci that grow in chains that usually live peacefully I n our gut. studies show they are an increasingly prevalent source of infection in humans. Your mom will require culture and sensitivity to antibiotic testing by wound culture and antibiotic treatment. Good luck.
