MRSA Risks and Symptoms


MRSA Infection Risk Factors

Risk factors for getting MRSA include playing contact sports, sharing towels or other personal items, having any condition that suppresses immune system function (for example, HIV, cancer, or chemotherapy), unsanitary or crowded living conditions (dormitories or military barracks), being a health-care worker, and young or old age. Almost anything that leads to breaks in the skin (for example, scratches, abrasions, or punctures) will increase infection risk. Hospitalized patients are at risk of having health-care workers and MRSA carriers accidently transfer MRSA between patients. Unfortunately, hospitalized patients usually have sites (for example, IV lines, surgical incision sites) that are easily contaminated with MRSA.


MRSA Infection Symptoms

Symptoms of MRSA infections are variable; however, pus production is often found in the infected area. Classic examples of pus-containing areas in patients are boils (pus in hair follicles), abscesses (pus collected underneath the skin), carbuncles (large abscesses with pus draining), sty (pus in the eyelid gland), and impetigo (pus in blisters on the skin).Cellulitis (infection under the skin or fatty tissue) usually does not have pus but begins with small red bumps on skin and also may be due to MRSA. These symptoms are most often found in CA-MRSA but can also be found in HA-MRSA. When antibiotic therapy fails, CA- and HA-MRSA should be considered as a potential cause of infection.

HA-MRSA infections are usually suspected when the hospitalized patient develops signs ofsepsis (fever, chills, low blood pressure, weakness, and mental deterioration), even if the patient is being treated with an antibiotic. CA-MRSA patients that develop sepsis orpneumonia (lung infection) need immediate hospitalization. However, hospitalized patients do not need to have a primary site of MRSA infection, only a site where MRSA can invade (invasive or serious MRSA) and proliferate (for example, any surgical site, IV site, or site of an implanted device). Consequently, symptoms of pus production or signs of sepsis in any hospitalized patient, especially those with immune compromise (for example, HIV, cancer, or the elderly) could be due to MRSA.


Featured Testimonial

My daughter Kass, (15yrs) had what looked like a spider bite on her arm. Over a few days time it looked very infected and swollen so I took her to the doctor. He said she most likely had a staph aeureus aeureus infection he took a culture (March 28th, 2008) and put her on anti-biotics.

When I got home that day I started researching MRSA and came across an article ’Cat and Woman Share SUPERBUG!' After reading it I wondered about our cat (Chloe) who had been having problems (skin lesions) for about a month on her behind. The vet, after a couple visits still wasn't sure what the problem was as the treatments they had tried were not helping. So I called and the next day they cultured our cat. (March 29th, 2008)

On March 30th we found that our daughter was confirmed with MRSA, by this time she had a hole in her arm the size of a silver dollar that was 1/2 inch deep. We put our cat in a kennel in a spare room to keep her quarantined until we knew if she also had the bacteria. (As we were still waiting for culture results) I began searching for cases where animals had this MRSA and found the Bella Moss Foundation. Jill and her USA representative Lori were wonderful with all their support and recommendations on how to go about making my cat better and comfortable. Jill and Lori spent hours discussing with me food that would be easier for Chloe to digest and we also considered as a team way’s to help boost Chloe’s immune system.

I found a product for our daughter that helped kill the bacteria and start the healing process. As this worked for her so well, I contacted the Staphwash Company and was told that there was a product made specifically for animals with this MRSA bacteria. We got the product, applied it; and within hours it had improved dramatically. Within a month; all signs of infection were gone. Both our cat and daughter are MRSA free at this time, and show no signs of any re-occurrence.

I saw 1st hand how fast MRSA develops and how serious it can become in a matter of a few days. Thank Goodness for the Bella Moss Foundation willing to lend a hand with advice and/or information and support that is very much helpful in fighting these HORRIBLE bacteria.
