Why does MRSA keep returning i have a 2 year old that has had MRSA 5 times in 6 months and now we think she may have it again i really need help to figure out what to do to get rid of it for GOOD?

Answer 1

MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) can be persistent due to its ability to survive on surfaces and in the environment, as well as its resistance to many antibiotics. In children, repeated infections may occur due to close contact with others, underlying health issues, or incomplete eradication of the bacteria. To help prevent further infections, practice good hygiene, keep wounds clean and covered, wash hands frequently, and ensure any shared items are sanitized. It’s also important to consult a healthcare provider for tailored advice, potential decolonization strategies, and appropriate antibiotic treatment if needed.
