MRSA And Staph
Hello! I am trying to figure out if a run of the mill staph infection can cause a single boil/abcess the way mrsa does? I am finding conflicting information online, because some sites say that regular staph usually causes small pimple like bumps while mrsa causes the big boil ones. Other sites say regular staph can do both. My mother in law (who watched my kids last week) has a huge boil type thing that has just started weeping as of yesterday...she has had it for 3 weeks and was put on keflex which did nothing. I am really freaked out...
