Can I go tanning with MRSA?

Home More advice Health

So the results are back and I have mrsa;( but it's on a wound next to my knee, the infection was taken care of so now my doc says I just need to focus on healing the wound. But anyway I was wondering if it's safe to go in a tanning bed with it? It won't touch the bed at all and if it does I'll put alchahol on it. But would it make my wound worse? Or Is it ok to do?
