You can get a staph infection usually from skin to skin contact. It is super common and finds its way in the body thru an open cut/break in your skin, mouth, nose, lungs etc. They commonly look like pus-producing boils, abscesses or blisters on the skin, many people mistake them for spider bites =S Here is a great website I found a great website that has LOOOADS of information about Staph infections and natural remedies to get ride of them!
