8-year-old Ifeyinwa pictured above is being treated at the Federal Medical Center Owerri in Imo state after suffering severe burns from an injection she received from a nurse. According to reports, Ifeyinwa had fallen ill some weeks ago and her aunt took her to see a nurse that had a chemist around their home. The nurse said she showed symptoms of malaria and gave her an "anti-malaria injection". Shortly after receiving the injection, Ifeyinwa's body started to react seriously leading to some parts of her body burning up.

Expired Igbo made fake injection. What did the know know to start injecting a child without proper medical test.
His Excellency, Rochas Okorocha please fly dis girl 4 a proper Medical Check up. She has a bright future ahead.
Steven Johnson syndrome most likely.... Pliz health care workers ensure you take people's medical histories in detail. Very important... Wish her safe recovery
She was probably allergic to the medication.
She was probably allergic to the medication.
Cases of Steven Johnson's syndrome is on the rise. Lord have mercy o
Long live LIB
Apc injection....
In the UK, doctors and nurses hardly inject patients unless they are hospitalised. It is even hard for doctors to prescribe injection and antibiotics. The nurse had no right to inject a child just like that without a doctor's diagnosis. NMA should change the way medication is given to patients. She may not have needed injection. Hope it was not expired or wrong medication. Poor girl! Sad!
Omg..., not another one! Shouldn't health practitioners find out your medical history b4 they administer medication. They killed my neighbor with this kind of carelessness. Pumped a diabetic with drips, nd killed her. Nigeria, we soo hv a long way to go. May God heal this little girl, IJN.
Watttttt, nurse Eliza
Stevens Johnson syndrome on the increase
It's Steven Johnson syndrome... it's a severe reaction to a medicine taken, mainly Sulphur containing drugs. Medical history is very paramount in any treatment.
@Livingston chibuike. LWkM. Afi APC injection na. Lord have mercy. Get well fast little girl.
Get well soon baby
More like Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) which is the senior brother of Stephen Johnson Syndrome if more than 30% of the skin is involved wc is the case here.
Expired stuff
May God grant her a quick recovery.
THERE IS PROBABLY A FAKE DRUG IN CIRCULATION AND NAFDAC SHOULD SWING INTO ACTION.
Don't do that to Ifeyinwa, again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What's the name of the nurse?
What do u knw about diabetics and drip.have u heard of diabetic ketoacidosis,in which the patient has to receive abt 6litres of fluid in 24hiurs.dnt show your ignorance,and always visit a good hospital.nigerians always blackmailing doctors and other health workers
