What is a MRSA Infection?
A MRSA infection is frequently caused by exposure to staph bacteria in a healthcare setting. Although the older population and people with lowered immune function are at greater risk of infection, medical professionals can also contract this sometimes fatal infection in the course of their daily work.
MRSA infections typically start out as small red skin bumps that resemble acne or insect bites. These small boils can quickly turn into deep, painful wounds that require surgical draining. While MRSA infections typically remain confined to the skin, they can penetrate the body resulting in infections of the blood, heart, or lungs.
