depends, some strains of the bacteria contain a unique gene that allows them to break down a large number of the antibiotics we would normally used to treat that type of infection, these strains are called methicillin resistant staph aureus (MRSA) and they most certainly are a super bug
other strains do not have this gene and are called methicillin sensitive staph auresus (MSSA) and these are no worse than any other bacteria
the problem being that hospitals are seeing more and more MRSA and less and less MSSA, it is the bacterial species evolving in front of our eyes in response to the continued use of antibiotics against them
Yes, staph infections can in fact be cured. They can be cured with prescription antibiotics that are given to the patient with the staph.
Yes because salmonella is a bacterium genus.
Yes it can. You will need to do a sensitivity test first though as some strains have become resistant to the commonly used antibiotics.
Can staph cause , hives .
Yes, there are over 30 different types of staph infections.
Staph is a common bacteria in the mouth - up to 80% of the population will have it. This doesn't mean that there is an infection, staph is commonly found on and in the body without causing an infection. If there is an infection (redness, swelling, pus) then it is certainly possible that staph is the bug.
Dogs can certainly carry staph infections. This then means that dogs can definitely carry the staph infection and pass it to humans.
Yes.
Staph infections can be cured. If you have one, it is IMPERATIVE that you must see your doctor as soon as you can to get medical treatment. Because staph eats away at your body, you never want to wait too long before getting help. The process of curing one is not fun at all, and extremely painful. Depending on the size and severity of your staph infection will determine the actions your doctor will take in curing it. In most cases, this is how a staph infection will be cured. The doctor will try to drain the staph infection. If it is too painful to be drained, they will numb the area being worked on. They will drain the infection out completely. They will irrigate the area with water to clean the area. The infection will be packed with gauze and bandaged up. You will get a shot to relieve pain. You will be prescribed with medications to help with pain. Hopefully, your staph infection will be gotten rid of. These can NOT be cured on your own, and it is EXTREMELY important to see your doctor, because if you wait too long, it will eat away your body. That is how a staph infection can be cured.
We all have staph!Yes dogs and cats have staph living on their skin... But so do all humans. Staph is a normally occurring bacteria. The problem is when it is introduced into a wound or begins growing in an area that is weakened because of a cut or disease. A staph infection is a colony of staph bacteria that is not being killed by our normal immune system. ANSWER #2Yes, everyone/animal does. If the body's immune system is down and exposure turns into an infection, (strept throat is easily cured with a gargle of 1/8 tsp of cayenne - MRSA with turmeric/baking soda paste with a turmeric capsule taken internally as a kicker), herbal products will not mess up the body's natural flora like antibiotics will.
no it could be a lot of skin diseases it doesnt meen u have staph
The correct spelling is "staph infection." "Staph" is shorthand for staphylococcus, a kind of bacteria.

Staph
They are highly infections, not just to dogs, but to humans as well.
Staph is not a typical cause of hepatitis.
Yes, very. Especially the newer "resistant" staph infections. There are some strains of staph that cannot be treated with antibiotics. Staph infections can kill and staph infections that you encounter at hospitals are typically the most difficult to treat.
large red bump that looks like a pimple, small boils, do not pick! go to the doctor and have them do a staph culture. you can aslo see pics of staph online if you google "pictures of staph". staph is very dangerous in certain strains and also contagious. if you are certain it may be staph go get the culture asap.
Topical steroids are more likely to worsen staph. They are not effective in curing staph.
first of all if u have staph keep it covered and clean. and yes staph is contegious!
