E. coli in a leg wound typically occurs when bacteria from the gastrointestinal tract or contaminated surfaces enter the wound. This can happen through direct contact with fecal matter, poor hygiene, or exposure to contaminated water or soil. Additionally, if the wound is not properly cleaned and cared for, E. coli can proliferate, leading to infection. It’s important to seek medical attention for proper wound care to prevent such infections.
