15 Year Old With Fever, Dizziness And Headache. Had MRSA Infection In The Past. Need To Go To The Emergency?

I have a 15 year old son who has a fever this evening (101.5), sore eyes, back ache, dizzy, horrible headache and feeling "out of it". He had a MRSA infection 2 years ago where he was hospitalized for 5 days. With the symptoms he has right now, should I be concerned that the MRSA has returned and take him to the ER, or wait it out?

Hi welcome to Health care magic forum.
Thanks for asking a question to H.C.M.F.
Your 15 years son had fever , sore eyes, back ache, dizzyness, horrible headache, and feeling out of it.
Two years back he had M.R.S.A. when he was admitted for 5 days. You are suspecting the recurance of the same.
M.R.S.A. is a disease of infection with methicilline resistant streptococcus aurius , charecterised with red eruptions on the body. when they are not there you can exclude it .
Still i advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery.
Best regards.
