Sorry to hear this Caya, it's scary we can get this so easily!
Thankfully it sounds like it'll be kept under control for you, my friend developed it just from sitting in her hot tub! She thought keeping her hand out would give her protection but of course it's her body temp too that caused the problem.
I really hope they can treat this with the minimum of fuss
