Response to Staph Infection anyone??

 

Just FYI..we all have staph on our skin. It just turns into an infection when your immune system take a dip OR you are exposed to someone elses staph infection. When I was pregnant I got a pimple (or so I though) on my stomach...I popped it...WRONG CHOICE...I went to the doctor and they tested it and it was staph...they gave me cream but said it probably wouldn't go away until after I had the baby. They were right. Reason being your immune system is suppressed when you are pregnant. Anyways I wouldn't be too concerned about staph unless it's MRSA...Just take the antibiotics and move on.
