I have questions about MRSA?

you are doing the correct thing by keeping it covered and wash your hands frequently..children are at greater risk from MRSA because of their immature immune systems and the drugs used to treat it are very strong and can sometimes themselves be toxic. you however are unlikely to become ill. most people do not. those who die usually have underlying illnesses or weakened immune systems. You should just be careful, but do not become overly afraid, MRSA exists all over the place, it a staph bacteria that has just become immune to the weaker antibiotics. It is possible to keep others from getting it from your wound.

I think you can relax, You have a normal strong immune system right. I have had staph and mrsa before and yes it was painful, and disgusting and left scars but it was isolated on the derma and not blood born. You sound like you are taking good hygiene to keep it at bay. You can always check out webmd.com for more info on this, Relax and good luck

my friend had MRSA and she went to the hopital, they numbed it, and cut it out. She still has the virus but she has to stay really clean and whenever she gets a cut she has to cover it up. PLease go to the hospital and have it removed.
