MRSA is a very lethal contagious flesh eating bacteria. My dad has had a black spot on his inner thigh for a couple days and today he just got confirmed by his doctor to have MRSA. It is considered a staph infection and spreads mostly to moist or warm environments on your body. We've also all got the cold right now which is even worse because its weakening our immune systems. My dad is currently on 3 different medications, And the rest of my family in the house have to take a special ointment prescribed by our doctor, And we have to put it on a cotton swab and rub it inside of both nasal cavities. Hopefully my whole family passes this right over. But for now we've had to keep our eyes peeled on each other and our selves. The only noticeable way to tell if you have the infection is if you spontaneously obtain a black spot of flesh on your body with red all around it.
