In response to message posted by anav:

It is not uncommon to have recurrent attacks of boils. As long as you have a good immune system you should be fine. Eventually these recurrences will go away. If not you might want to go see a specialist in skin diseases: a Dermatologist.

Tanya...
i thick you should go and check that problem... hopefully is not MRSA ... but as i Know the sooner you know the sooner you will be better... go to your gynecologist.. and tell her/him to make a culture of what is inside of the boil and of the blister too. maybe it could be just an infection but everything around that area is very delicate, sorry of my bad English...but i hope everything turn right for you, good luck !!!let us know how you are!

Hello

My name is Angelina

I would really like to speak to you.

I have also had a breast augmentation and I have recurring boils on my skin from a severe staff infection that will not go away. My family including my son is now also getting these boils with positive staff infection.

The doctors I have seen do not seem to understand what my family and I are going through. These doctors are taking these infections much to lightly.

Please call me my phone number is 239-542-4788.

In response to message posted by NealC:

Can in labs find out who is the carrier of MRSA, by making a culture of our nose? how those it call that exam ... i have more questions that all doctors i met recently they seem not to know ..... can you answer my questions?
Can my baby be the carrier of MRSA when he was born ... can he get it from nursery room ...because surgery was from a mastitis( a duct stock from milk) and maybe he pass it to me ... or is more possible that i got it when i get the surgery? ...thanks

In response to message posted by anav:

Yes labs can find out who the carrier is of a MRSA. Your baby might be a carrier in that the baby may have gotten it while in the nursery. Or you could have gotten it during or following your surgery.
