An out of control infection produces a condition known as gangrene, which is the equivalent of decomposing while still alive. If the infection is too massive for the immune system to defeat, that is the result. The only cure for gangrene is to cut off the affected body part (and that is only feasible for limbs; it can't be done for the torso or head).
