MRSA Infection
Many people carry SA and MRSA on their skin and in their nose and are never ill with it. Being around an MRSA carrier means you may be a carrier. The symptoms for many are skin infections but MRSA can complicate internal illnesses. You will need to seek profesional advice as to whether MRSA is a complicating factor in another illness you may have.
