A staph infection is a very dangerous thing to be trying to deal with on your own. It's very contagious and spreads like wildfire. You need antibiotics. Keep the wound covered and disinfect any items that come in contact with your back. I do know of a old wife's rememdy that might help until you can go to the dr but no guarantees. You take the inside lining of a raw egg, it's the skin on the inside of the shell. You put it slimey side down on the infected site and put a bandage over it. When the lining dries it pulls out the infection. You must wash this area with alcohol several times a day. As I said this is a old wife's rememdy. Honestly I would go to the dr. Staph can kill you. Take care hope you get well soon.
