Taking a bath with a staph infection is generally not recommended, as it can potentially worsen the infection or spread it to other areas of the body or to other people. It's important to keep the infected area clean and dry, and to follow your healthcare provider's advice regarding hygiene practices. If you're unsure, it's best to consult with a medical professional for personalized guidance.

You definitely need a bath during yeast infection otherwise it turn for the worst, you need to clean your vaginal area properly to clean out the discharge and perhaps the cream (if you use any) so as to make way for fresh application. What you can avoid are very perfumed soaps/shower gels for they are also known to cause yeast infection in some women.

You like to get your septum pierced but you had staph infection from a tat not to long ago so is it ok to go ahead and get the piercing?

Well considering what goes up your nose daily and the fact that you had a staph infection, I would suggest you consult your doctor to be sure you wont have any issues with the piercing. Your sinuses retain bacteria, mould spores, irritants and whole host of other airborne nasties so having had staph means your system won't be as strong as it was and may react poorly to the piercing. See your doc for advice.


If your father has a staph infection are you in danger of getting it also?

Staph is a common bacteria. It's everywhere. If your immune system is ok you shouldn't have any more of a risk of getting it provided that you use good hygene and keep yourself reasonably clean. Staph infection gets into small cuts and sometimes even pores of people with weakened immune system. Sometimes it's just because they haven't been eating right or maybe not getting enough sleep or who knows what. Don't get too excited about it, but make sure the dishes are clean.
