General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
MRSA is nothing but Methicillin Resistant Streptococcus Aureus infection. It is resistant to penicillin group of drugs.
The infection can be overcome by doing a culture and sensitivity study of the infection and treat accordingly with a course of antibiotic(s) which the organisms are sensitive to.
Kindly consult Physician in this regard for proper evaluation and management.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
