MRSA SYMPTOM
"Here you will learn the symptoms to look out for with MRSA"
MRSA SYMPTOMS
MRSA can cause a broad range of symptoms depending on which part of
the body is infected. The parts of the body infected can include
surgical wounds, burns, catheter sites, eyes, skin and blood. It causes
pain and swelling at the site of infection.
The two reasons that people in hospital are more likely to catch
MRSA are that firstly, people residing in hospitals are generally more
likely to get an MRSA infection
because they are older, weaker and sicker than the general population
and secondly, because patients are close together in wards constantly
being touched by doctors and nurses who have just touched other
patientsunkowingly with Mrsa Symptoms.
What are the symptoms?
The symptoms of MRSA infection depend on where you've been infected.
MRSA most often appears as a skin infection, like a boil or abscess.
It also might infect a surgical wound. In either case, the area would
look:
- Swollen
- Red
- Painful
- Pus filled
Many people who actually have staph skin infections often mistake it for a spider bite when really it is a Mrsa Symptom.
If staph infects the lungs and causes pneumonia, you might have:
- Shortness of breath
- Fever
- Chills
An MRSA symptom can cause many other symptoms since it can infect the urinary tract or the bloodstream.
Very rarely, staph can result in necrotizing fasciitis, or
"flesh-eating" bacterial infections. These are serious skin infections
that spread very quickly. While frightening, necrotizing fasciitis
caused by staph is rare. There have only been a handful of reported
cases.
Call your doctor if:
In most cases, MRSA Symptoms
are easily treated. But since MRSA infection can be serious or --
rarely -- fatal, don't ignore signs of infection. See your health care
provider.
If you are already being treated for an infection, watch for signs
that your medicine isn't working. If you are taking an antibiotic, call
your doctor if
- The infection is no better after three or four days
- The infection keeps getting worse
- You develop a fever, or your fever gets worse
People who are ill or have a compromised immune system have a higher
risk of getting MRSA. If you have a condition that lowers your
immunity, call your doctor right away if you think that you might have
an infection.
