The Dirty Truth About MRSA
When MRSA comes up in conversation, it doesn’t get a positive reception. The ultimate yuck factor - the mere mention of it makes our skin crawl.

Educational video describing the condition of MRSA (Methicillin Resistant Saphylococcus Aureus) infection and treatment.
MRSA is a contagious bacteria that mya cause infection. MRSA is difficult to treat because it is resistant to most commonly used antibiotics. The history of MRSA is related to the advent of penicillin.
Penicillin was discovered in 1925, isolated in the 19030s and commonly used by the mid-1940s. by the late 1950s there was some resistance to penicillin, so a synthetic alternative was created in the form of methicillin in 1959.
MRSA was first recognized in 1961. What makes MRSA resistant? When penicillin is able to bind to the binding protein of the cell wall, disruption of the cell walla and destruction of the bacteria is possible. However, if staph aureus acquires the mecA gene, then it can alter the penicillin binding protein, making the bacteria resistant to all penicillin.
Where does MRSA occur? The infection can occur in different parts of the body. Approximately 1/3 of all people carry MRSA harmlessly in the nose, throat, or in the skin. The primary way of transmitting MRSA is through direct contact with another person, object that has it, or from sneeze droplets of an infected person. 30% of staph bacteria live in the nose.
Symptoms of MRSA infection
•Skin infection (most common)
•Maybe mild infection of the skin such as a boil or sore
•May also develop to become a significant infection such as necrotizing fasciitis
•It can be life-threatening if the bacteria travel into the bloodstream.
Possible severe symptoms
•Fever
•Fatigue
•Pain
•Swelling of the affected area
•Drainage of a surgical wound
Also may cause
•Pneumonia
•Urinary tract infection
Health professionals call it the “superbug”, since MRSA is hard to treat. MRSA may also develop resistance to vancomycin, which is supposed to be the best treatment for the MRSA bacteria. It is a constant battle when dealing with MRSA and doctors are developing new antibiotics to deal with the changing resistance of the bacteria.
MRSA typically occurs in people with weak immune systems. It occurs in hospitals, nursing homes, intensive care units, surgical wounds and implanted devices.
Community-associated MRSA: MRSA is seen more in the younger population even in children and may show up otherwise healthy individuals who have not received any type of hospital care (didn’t get it from the hospital). Also may be seen in athletes and military personnel.
Diagnosis
MRSA is diagnosed by examining a swab or culture. Internal infections may need to have a blood culture done.
How is MRSA treated?
•The standard treatment for skin infections is oral antibiotics given for 7-10 days.
•In addition to antibiotics, drainage of the infected abscess may be done with a needle or with a small incision.
•Never drain the abscess or boil on your own as this may worsen the infection.
•The best treatment is proper hand washing
•Treatment of severe infections may need to be done in a hospital with IV antibiotics such as vancomycin.
•Treatment for patients with nasal colonization but no infection is 2%mupirocin ointment applied to nares 2-3 times a day.

When MRSA comes up in conversation, it doesn’t get a positive reception. The ultimate yuck factor - the mere mention of it makes our skin crawl.
“Well contamination, infection, something gross,” says Evan Derby.
Evan Derby spends much of his day at a computer keyboard. The dirty truth is MRSA may be there, too, frequently found on frequently touched surfaces. In fact 40% of us have the Staphylococcus aureus bacteria on us right now. MRSA is an antibiotic resistant strain of this bacteria; it can live undetected on our skin for a long time.
“Probably I’m colonized with MRSA because I see so many patients. A lot of people are colonized with MRSA. We are colonized and nothing happens. So you could be carrier of MRSA and have, live a normal life,” says Dr. Pranav Shah, who is an infectious disease specialist with Lee Memorial Health System.
MRSA likes things warm and fuzzy.
“MRSA usually stays in moist, hairy places: nose, axillary, groin region,” says Dr. Shah.
Just because it’s all around us doesn’t mean MRSA is harmless. It can lead to severe antibiotic resistant infections. Spread through contact, you can pick it up from touching a compromised person or object like a computer, door knob or gym equipment. To get a reaction the bug has to have an entry point into your body.
“If there is a skin breakdown and it has a portal of entry then it gives you an infection,” says Dr. Shah.
Cleaning and covering cuts may prevent infections, which can range from a boil or abscess to severe, even life-threatening sickness. The best defense is hand-to-hand combat.
“The best thing you can do is hand washing. Hand washing, hand washing, hand washing,” says Dr. Shah.
Armed with this knowledge, Evan is soaping up and trying to stay hands-off.
“I’d touch things a whole lot less, that’s for sure,” says Derby.

When MRSA comes up in conversation, it doesn’t get a positive reception. The ultimate yuck factor - the mere mention of it makes our skin crawl.
“Well contamination, infection, something gross,” says Evan Derby.
Evan Derby spends much of his day at a computer keyboard. The dirty truth is MRSA may be there, too, frequently found on frequently touched surfaces. In fact 40% of us have the Staphylococcus aureus bacteria on us right now. MRSA is an antibiotic resistant strain of this bacteria; it can live undetected on our skin for a long time.
“Probably I’m colonized with MRSA because I see so many patients. A lot of people are colonized with MRSA. We are colonized and nothing happens. So you could be carrier of MRSA and have, live a normal life,” says Dr. Pranav Shah, who is an infectious disease specialist with Lee Memorial Health System.
MRSA likes things warm and fuzzy.
“MRSA usually stays in moist, hairy places: nose, axillary, groin region,” says Dr. Shah.
Just because it’s all around us doesn’t mean MRSA is harmless. It can lead to severe antibiotic resistant infections. Spread through contact, you can pick it up from touching a compromised person or object like a computer, door knob or gym equipment. To get a reaction the bug has to have an entry point into your body.

Welcome, viewers, to today's deep dive into a critical topic - MRSA infections. MRSA, or Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus, is a type of bacteria that has evolved resistance to many commonly used antibiotics. In this blog, we'll explore the causes, symptoms, and effective treatments for MRSA infections, empowering you with the knowledge to protect yourself and your loved ones.
Section 1: Understanding MRSA Infections
MRSA is a strain of Staphylococcus aureus, a bacterium commonly found on the skin or in the nose. What sets MRSA apart is its resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics, including methicillin and other commonly used drugs. This resistance makes MRSA infections challenging to treat, often requiring alternative antibiotics.
Section 2: Causes of MRSA Infections
MRSA infections can occur in various settings, from healthcare facilities to the community at large. Factors contributing to the spread of MRSA include close skin-to-skin contact, crowded living conditions, and compromised immune systems. It's crucial to be aware of these factors to reduce the risk of infection.
Section 3: Symptoms of MRSA Infections
Identifying the symptoms of MRSA infections is vital for prompt treatment. Common symptoms include redness, swelling, and tenderness at the site of infection, which may resemble a spider bite or pimple. Systemic symptoms like fever and chills can also occur. Recognizing these signs early on is essential for seeking medical attention.
Section 4: Treatment Options for MRSA Infections
Effective treatment of MRSA infections often involves antibiotics other than the traditional beta-lactams. Your healthcare provider may prescribe antibiotics like clindamycin, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, or doxycycline. In severe cases, hospitalization and intravenous antibiotics may be necessary. It's crucial to complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed.
Section 5: Preventing MRSA Infections
Prevention is key when it comes to MRSA. Simple hygiene practices, such as regular handwashing, keeping wounds clean and covered, and avoiding sharing personal items like towels and razors, can significantly reduce the risk of MRSA transmission. In healthcare settings, infection control measures play a critical role in preventing the spread of MRSA.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, understanding MRSA infections is essential for everyone. By being aware of the causes, symptoms, and available treatments, you can take proactive steps to protect yourself and those around you. Remember, early detection and proper medical care are crucial for managing MRSA infections. Stay informed, stay healthy, and share this knowledge to promote a safer and healthier community.
