Necrotizing fasciitis is a sporadic infection caused by a bacterium that spreads promptly throughout the body and it could be tragic and terminal. A thorough diagnosis, prompt antibiotic treatment, and prompt surgical treatment are required and essential to break this infection. Necrotizing fasciitis is a "flesheating illness" caused by a variety of bacteria. Necrotizing fasciitis is typically caused by group A Streptococcus, according to public health experts (group A strep). This necrotizing fasciitis is primarily caused by group A strep bacteria. A skin breach is one of the most common repeated methods for bacteria to enter the body. Scratches or cuts, burns, insect bites, and puncture lesions are just a few of the skin breakdowns that can occur (including those caused intravenously by drug use) surgical incisions that can lead to deformity. A male patient in his late 50’s was admitted with a case complaining painful swelling on the unilateral submandibular and orbital areas of the face. The overlying skin was oedematous and reddish and some part of the orbital region showing scabbing of necrosed skin. He also complained extreme pain on the face mainly in the orbital region. After the treatment, however his condition persisted and does not show any progress for over a period of time and had to undergo facial surgery to remove the areas affected by the necrosis which is mainly on the orbital region of the right face. Necrotizing fasciitis can affect people of any age; however, it typically affects people with compromised immune systems. With that 0.40/100,000 individuals in adult and 0.08/100,000 individuals in children. Necrotizing fasciitis is an uncommon condition. Raising awareness and enhancing clinical diagnosis are crucial. The purpose of this case report is to emphasize the significance of a baseline consultation of hospitals and doctors for the prevention of further problems and debilitation.
