Signs of a staph infection can appear within hours to a few days after exposure to the bacteria. The timeline may vary depending on the type of staph infection, the individual's immune response, and the site of infection. Common symptoms include redness, swelling, and pain at the infection site, along with fever and other systemic symptoms in more severe cases. If you suspect a staph infection, it's important to seek medical attention promptly.

How long are you contagious with mrsa before you show signs?

MRSA (methylcillian resistant staph aureus) is a staph infection that is resistant to most antibiotics. There are many kinds of staph germs. If you have MRSA your infection will not "look" any different than someone with non-MRSA staph. A person can "carry" the MRSA germ without ever actually having the infection. If they have an open wound, the germ can infect it (via touch/contact) and cause the wound to have a hard time healing until super strong antibiotics are used. Once someone has MRSA, they are considered "positive" always. Summary: You can be "contagious" and NEVER show symptoms.
