MRSA Skin Infections

Superficial MRSA Skin Infections 

• Pimples, boils, and impetigo. Impetigo is a superficial or surface skin infection. 
• If left untreated, superficial infections have potential to progress into serious/invasive infections. 

Deep MRSA Skin Infections 

• MRSA Cellulitis – a deep skin infection extending into underlying tissue. 
• MRSA Abscess – a deep pocket of pus. 
• Cellulitis and abscesses may be small and localized or progress into serious/invasive infections.
