👉 Worn-infection refers to an infection that has persisted and evolved over time, often due to repeated exposure or inadequate treatment. This type of infection is characterized by its ability to resist standard therapies and develop resistance mechanisms, making it particularly challenging to treat. It can result from chronic conditions like tuberculosis, HIV, or even skin infections that have been ongoing for years. The pathogen in a worn-infection has likely undergone genetic mutations that enhance its survival and virulence, allowing it to evade the immune system and continue to cause harm despite treatment. This persistent nature often necessitates prolonged or more aggressive therapeutic interventions to manage and potentially eradicate the infection.
