Recently I have been treated for several MRSA abscesses that are hopefully going to remain cleared up. However, my boyfriend had several abscesses lanced today and I was wondering the risk of my developing more now that he has some and what we can do to prevent it. I have had several series of antibiotics and he is now on Biactin.

nowadays MRSA is spreading rapidly all over world. source of infection most probably is hospital.and this staphylococcus organism is resistant to methicillin.
so you have visit your near by physician and get done your pus culture and antibiotic sensitivity tests done.so that you will get to know along with MRSA any other organism also causing the infection.
