What Causes Frequent MRSA Outbreaks On The Skin?

I have frequent MRSA outbreaks on my skin, often as the result of an ingrown hair, irritate white or black head or for seemingly no reason at all. I wash all effected areas with Hibiclens, and I have a doctor prescribed cream that I use afterward. Still, I get them often, and they often seep pus and remain open sores for sometimes months at a time. I really don t know what else to do! Help!

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello,

Frequent MRSA could be attributed to some inherited disorders with immunity. However these disorders cause frequent MRSA infection in different areas of body rather than skin only.

The other things are due to frequent seeding of MRSA to skin or Job syndrome.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Ashok Kumar, Psychiatrist
