mystery nonsense sentence edit
"Another early symptom is dark or light-green shears in excrement" is the second sentence in this article. Ir doesn't make sense to me on any level, so I am deleting it. --75.164.155.194 (talk) 05:49, 29 September 2016 (UTC)

Rabbit blood cultures edit
This edit introduced a grave error [1]. It was original research and drew an erroneous conclusion from a micrograph legend from 1978! It implied that the bacterium lived in rabbits. The cited 2014 Lancet paper "Haemophilus ducreyi: a newly recognised cause of chronic skin ulceration" by Roberts and Taylor is correct and the 1978 photograph does not contradict it. (It is probably rabbit blood agar culture) Please be aware of WP:OR and WP:SYNTH when adding information, especially to medical statements and articles.
