Hi,
Many healthy people carry staph bacteria in their noses without getting sick. But when the skin is punctured or broken, staph bacteria can enter the wound and cause infections.
Staph can spread through the air, on contaminated surfaces, and from person to person. A child can carry staph bacteria from one area of the body to another on dirty hands and under dirty fingernails. Staph can pass from person to person the same way. So hand washing is the most important way to prevent staph infections.
Keep areas of the skin that have been injured - such as cuts, scrapes, and rashes caused by allergic reactions or poison ivy - clean and covered, and use any other treatments that your doctor suggests.
Good luck.
Dear soldiersprincess,
I'm sure you've been to the doctor to see if you have a weak immune system right? This is the first step if you are always getting them. The other is that the people you are in contact with...are they infected? Have a house clean, clothes clean and very good hygiene is of course a good way to prevent them in your home but if you are in contact with others outside the home and you have a weak immune system this could be the culprit. See your doctor about some testing.
Sue...good luck
