Can mrsa get in your bones?

Is MRSA selective or differential?

MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) is not classified as selective or differential; rather, it refers to a specific strain of Staphylococcus aureus resistant to methicillin and other antibiotics. However, MRSA can be identified using selective media that inhibit the growth of non-MRSA strains while allowing MRSA to grow, such as mannitol salt agar with specific antibiotics. In this context, it can be considered selective for isolating MRSA from samples.


MRSA mutation process?

Bacteria have the ability to mutate and become resistant to elements that are attempting to destroy them, such as antibiotics. As a result of abuse and overuse of antibiotics, there are not antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria such as MRSA and VRE. Even though antibiotics have become less effective in destroying these mutated superbugs, Manuka Honey is not being used to kill MRSA and effectively treat Staph infections.


Can you catch MRSA if you are on antibiotics?

Yes you can. MRSA is a multi drug resistant Staff aureus bacteria. If you are on an antibiotic that the MRSA is resistant to, then it's as if you not taking any antibiotic. Keep in mind that the reason we have MRSA is because of the widespread use of antibiotics. We often use them unnecessarily for viral infections. These constant exposures allow the bacteria, not just this one, to adapt and survive.
