"aseptic appearing picture" - kc

try a septic appearing and aseptic

probably "a septic-appearing picture" - sm

In context it would seem to be:  "she developed a septic-appearing picture."  i.e., she appeared to be developing sepsis.


I would think that if he meant "aseptic-appearing picture," he would have said "an" before "aseptic-appearing" .. as in "she developed an aseptic-appearing picture."


(either way, you need a hyphen between 'septic/aseptic' and 'appearing')
