Mercer infection
Staph infections can not be defined, as all the same thing. I did not always know that? I found it interesting that there are different types. Like the Mercer infection and a staph infection do have similar symptoms, so they can be easily confused. Symptoms that they share include, infections in the skin and possibly pneumonia. Mercer mainly affects bloodstream wounds like open wounds, or surgical. Things like this. They can be very painful, and fatal. That is why it is so important that if you do see an type of skin abnormality or swelling to make sure and get it looked at. If it is warm to the touch or bumpy. Head to the doctor.
