I have a small rash on my skin. can it be staph infection?

its on my wrist. i have no other problems like joints or anything its jus that.|||Probably not, but it is always possible. Usually staph presents as an ulcerated sore.|||A staph infection is just that... an infection. It would look much like a dark red area on your skin, not really any bumps or anything just dark red. It can be warm to the touch too. if you notice red streaks going up your arm then you really need to go to your doctors or better yet, an urgent care or ER cause the streaking is signsof an infection spreading and is in some serious need of IV antibiotics.





When in doubt make an appt. at your local dermatologist and they can help you figure out whats going on.





Good luck|||A staph infection usually swells and spreads so I doubt it. However, if it doesn't go away it is always better to go get it checked out than leave it hoping it will go away on its own.|||It is possible but more likely a contact dermatitis. Sometimes we come in contact with a material, we may not even know what it was, and our body over reacts to it causing a rash. This type of rash is usually patchy little bumps and are itchy. Staph infections will cause a large reddened area with ulcerations in the skin or blistering of the skin. If you scratch this rash and it breaks the skin at all then you would be at a higher risk of getting a staph infection. We all carry staph on our skin all the time. It is only harmful when the skin has an open area for it to invade and also when you have a compromised immune system as seen in chronic diseases, elderly, cancer pateints, and children etc...|||Go to ( genniesalve.com ) It has been helping alot of people. And Its all natural, and really works Great.
