Botulism is an acute paralytic disease caused by botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT)-mediated inhibition of neurosignaling at the neuromuscular junction. BoNTs are produced by gram positive, anaerobic, spore-forming bacteria from the genus <i>Clostridium,</i>most commonly<i> Clostridium botulinum</i>. Over the last decade, a previously uncommon form of botulism, wound botulism, has increased in prevalence possibly due to the rise in parenteral drug abuse. A 53-year-old patient with a history of drug abuse presents to a rural emergency department with rapidly progressing lower extremity weakness over the past few days. He reports a recent heroin injection into right buttock and diffuse skin-popping scarring was observed throughout. The patient was treated with heptavalent botulinum antitoxin obtained from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). A right thigh abscess culture was positive for<i> Clostridium tertium</i>, a left hip abscess culture was positive for methicillin-susceptible <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> (MSSA), and blood culture confirmed multi-microbial bacteremia caused by <i>Staphylococcus epidermidis</i> and <i>Streptococcus mitis</i>. Serum analysis was positive for BoNT type A from a suspected concurrent<i> Clostridium botulinum</i> infection as <i>C. tertium</i> is not known to produce BoNT type A. This case report highlights the importance of early antitoxin treatment for patients with suspected wound botulism.
