Nine patients have been admitted to Rangpur Medical College Hospital (RMCH) and their condition is deteriorating.

Flesh gets sepaerated and ultimately drops from the bone. The fleash in the inrected parts of the patients have been kept tucked with the bone with the help of bandage, they said.
RMCH doctors are also worried because the number of patients is increasing.
Some specialist doctors at
RMCH termed the disease as
'Extensive Cellulites' while some others said it is still unidentified.
A doctor seeking anonymity told the Daily Star that they are worried because they do not have sufficient instruments to detect the disease.

Mojibor told this correspondent
that he had felt severe pain in the left leg. " Within two days the whole leg swelled. After five days secretion began from the lower part of the leg."
Anam said he went to a village doctor but the diseaee was not cured in 13 days. He then came to RMCH.
RMCH principal, who is a surgery specialist, said the disease could be 'extensive cellulites'.
"It may have been caused from bite of a poisonous spider," he said.
Associate Professor at Pharmacology Department, Dr. Israul Bari, said it could be a bacterial disease, but he could not identify the bacteria.
The doctors said they are administering antibiotics and painkillers, but to no effect. Their condition is deteriorating fast, they said.
