A mother has died from a rare flesh-eating disease which she probably caught after being injured in a sex game, it was heard in court. 

Katie Widdowson, aged 23, went to hospital in agonising pain after she hurt her left wrist, while being tied-up in bed by her boyfriend Dean Smith.

Doctors initially dismissed her concerns, saying she had suffered a sprained wrist and sent her home with painkillers.                                                                       Katie the next day was unable to move her arm which had turned black and blistered, she was rushed back to hospital.

Tragically, Katie suffered a heart attack in the ambulance and was pronounced dead shortly after arriving at hospital on January 2 this year.

An inquest heard she had contracted a dangrous disease called Necrotising Fasciitis, known more commonly as a flesh-eating virus.

This killer disease can be caused by a small cut on someone's skin which can quickly develop into a deadly bacteria.

An inquest into her death found medical staff at Good Hope Hospital in Sutton Coldfield, West Midlands, failed to correctly diagnose her. https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.thesun.co.uk/news/4078522/mum-24-died-from-a-rare-flesh-eating-disease-after-being-injured-during-a-sex-game-with-her-boyfriend/amp/
