What to do if an infection was not diagnosed

If an infection was not diagnosed in time or at all, the damage could be considerable, and you may be left suffering for longer than you should have been. Whether the matter involved in infection generally, or an infection that may have arisen from surgery or treatment, it is essential that medical staff identify such problems and ensure that the correct treatment is administered as soon as possible.

In some of the most severe cases where an infection was not diagnosed in time or at all, people could be left with lifelong consequences if the problem spreads and affects major internal organs. It is no trivial matter when we consider that infections can be much more than what most people are used to. They are not always just trivial things that antibiotics can clear up, and there are serious complications that could even come down to a matter of life and death.

If you have been the victim of an incident in which an infection was not correctly diagnosed in time or at all, you could be entitled to pursue a personal injury compensation claim. If it is a medical negligence matter, and we believe that there is a case to pursue, we may be able to represent you for a claim on a No Win, No Fee basis.
