Staphylococcus bacteria can cause raised elevations on the skin, such as boils or abscesses, due to localized infections. These infections lead to inflammation, which results in swelling and the formation of pus, creating the raised appearance. The body's immune response to the infection also contributes to the elevated lesions as white blood cells accumulate at the site.
