How do you no if you have staff?
If you are asking the question, "How do you know if you have a staph infection?," the answer is: You must go to the doctor. The doctor can determine the presence of a staph infection by drawing blood and testing the blood for staph presence. Usually, a more direct means of detecting the variety of infection is to biopsy an area of the body which is suspected to be infected. Staph infections usually have very common telltale signs that would lead a pathologist to think that staph is the problem. Ultimately it would require a sample of the are that a doctor thinks is infected. The sample taken will be given to a microbiologist of some nature, tested in a lab, and given a definitive definition after it meets the standards of cell structure, virulence, and pathological definition.
