How To Prevent Getting Fever Blisters When Suffering From MRCA?

I have Crohn s disease and stay on and off of prednisone to help regulate it. When coming off of prednisone I never fail to get cold sores. Plus from my old picc line they discovered I am a MRCA carrier and always get it anytime I have an open sore, is there a way to prevent getting the fever blisters or the cysts with mrca In them?

Infectious Diseases Specialist,  's  Response
Hello,
Thank you for your contact to healthcare magic.
I understand your health concern, if I am your doctor I think you are talking about MRSA that is Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus. You should be treated by mupirocin to get clear from MRSA carrier status. Take treatment with Mupirocin and than get your umbullicus and nasal septum culture done for MRSA if you find out Staphylococcus aureus than you are not cleared with MRSA and further treatment is necessary. Follow the above step again to get relieved by carrier status by MRSA.

I will be happy to answer all your future concern.
Thank you,
Dr Arun Tank
