staph infection??

Question

Do you guys think this is staph? My mom won't believe me when I say it's staph and doesn't want to take me to the doctor.

Answer

The staph infections I've seen look more like blisters and there can be large wounds that don't heal. But there are hundreds of different strains of staph so they can present differently. Definitely get checked out by a doctor, staph can be dangerous if left untreated

Answer

My daughter had a staph infection a while ago and at first I thought it was chicken pox. She said they hurt and looked exactly like ur pic. You need to see a doc cause if it's staph it will continue to spread. I'd Google some images of staph/bacterial skin infections and show her. Can you go to the urgent care or hospital with someone else if she doesn't take you?
