I get frequent staph infections. I got my first in Korea 3 years ago and then my most recent around Christmas when I got a tattoo. I was shaving my pelvic area and noticed i shaved over and irritated a small hard lump. This lump then grew to be a volcanic looking blister and after a day it turned into a bunch of small blisters. my lymph nodes were swollen and i began running a fever. This was unlike any staph infection I've had in the past. I began researching and I think I fell victim to herpes. Just in case though I had some leftover Cephalexin from my last staph outbreak. I began taking it and the next day my fever went away, the redness and swelling of my lymph nodes subsided and the blisters began to shrink. I'm not sure that I have herpes or a staph infection. My last outbreak was cultured as staph but I haven't gone to the doctors for this because it seems to be going away with the antibiotics. I'd say it's worth a try if you can get your hands on some.
Cephalexin is more used for infections caused by bacteria. Herpes is caused by a virus so that won't do much for herpes break outs. For herpes you would need some thing that has antiviral medication.
