Transient flora, or opportunistic pathogens, are microorganisms that normally reside in the environment or on the skin but can cause infections when they enter the body or when the host's immune system is compromised. These pathogens can take advantage of breaks in the skin, mucosal barriers, or altered host defenses, leading to infections. Common examples include bacteria that can cause wound infections or urinary tract infections when introduced into normally sterile areas. Their ability to cause disease often depends on factors such as the individual's health status and the presence of other underlying conditions.
can cause boils and, in rare instances, serious skin infections. Bacteria from folliculitis can enter the blood stream and travel to other parts of the body.
