Four episodes of the popular series «House of the Dragon», And fans are fiercely discussing the series on social media.
It’s not uncommon for series blood fans to draw their own conclusions, share their thoughts, or discuss what certain scenes are. truly it means.
Now “House of the Dragon” fans think they’ve found out what’s wrong with King Viserys – and it’s a real disease.
– I was terrified
He refuses to heal
Since the series revolves around who will inherit the throne, it’s not out of the question that King Viserys, played by Paddy Considine, dies.
Already in the first episode of “The House of the Dragon” it is noted that the king is ill. The king has a back wound examined, and it is said to be a wound that he refuses to heal.
The independent writes that fans speculated if it could be a fictional disease called “Dragon pox”, but at the same time he can’t solve it. The newspaper writes that “dragonpox” is very contagious, but the king’s disease does not appear to be.
According to the newspaper, fans now believe they have found the answer and believe that the disease the king suffers from is “necrotizing soft tissue infection” or what is commonly called carnivorous bacteria in the vernacular.
I wonder what’s wrong with Viserys, as in today’s medical terms, or if it’s a fictional disease. I don’t remember anything in Fire + Blood or WoIaF. At first I thought of a staph infection, then necrotizing fasciitis, but does one move that slow? #Casadeldrago

It must act quickly
Elisabeth Holmboe was one of the doctors who was seen in the NRK “What’s Wrong With You?” Program. She hasn’t seen “The Dragon’s House”, but she says it is completely out of the question that the king suffers from a necrotizing soft tissue infection.
– If you understand this, you will die in a few days or in a short time, if you do not act quickly, he tells Dagbladet.
He says that if a patient suffers from carnivorous bacteria, the only way out is to operate.
– And then the patient must be operated quickly, says Holmboe.

– Risk of losing body parts
He says that to find out if a patient has contracted necrotizing bacteria in the tissue, doctors need to open it and look and feel, then take samples to see what kind of bacteria are growing there.
Holmboe explains this as a putrefaction process and states that if there are necrotizing bacteria in the tissue, doctors need to cut the area of dead tissue.
– Then they come back and operate again after a few hours or the next day, to make sure everything infected has been removed, he says and adds:
– You risk losing body parts.
The doctor says it’s hard to know what the king is suffering from, but points out that in the pre-antibiotic era nothing could be done if a wound was infected. Today, people can also be resistant to antibiotics and therefore a small wound can have fatal consequences.
