Types of Staph Infections


Staph infections can vary from simple minor infections such as pimples and boils to much more dangerous and life threatening infections such as pneumonia, mininges, septicema, endocarditis and osteomyelitis.

The various types of infections caused by the S.Aureus bacteria include:

Furuncles:

Furuncles are small sized skin boils and occur when a hair follicle gets bruised and allows and thereby provides a medium for bacteria to enter into the body's tissues. Once they enter the skin can for a boil which gets accumulated with pus and dead tissues and cells.

Carbuncles:

A carbuncles is an accumulation of a number of skin boils into one large one and are therefore much larger in size in comparison to a furuncle. Treatment of carbuncles and furuncles are almost the same.

Impetigo:

Impetigo is a staph infection that usually affects small children upto 6 years of age and has general characteristics of red small blisters on the arms and face which would form into a honey coloured crusty layer.

Cellulitis:

Cellulitis is a condition in which the skin around the legs , feet and arms become swollen and red. The infection is not dangerous but can turn deadly if it enters the bloodstream. Cellulitis should therefore be treated as soon as possible.

Meningitis:

Meningitis is a condition in which the meninges which are the fluid filled membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord get inflammed due to bacterial infection. The infection can turn deadly and requires immediate medical attention.

Osteomyelitis:

Osteomyelitis is an infection of the bones and is caused due to the S. aureus bacteria breaking into the body's tissues and entering the bloodstream through an open wound.

Endocarditis:

Endocarditis is a very serious, dangerous and life threatening infection that occurs when the staph bacteria attaches itself to the heart valves and endocardium membrane. Endocarditis is not commonly seen in healthy and active people but in people whose valves have already been bruised due to a previous medical disease.

  1. The herpes simplex virus is a contagious virus 
    that can be  
    passed from person to person through direct 
    contact. 
    Children will often contract HSV-1 from early 
    contact with 
    an infected adult. They then carry the virus with 
    them for 
    the rest of their life. 
    Infection with HSV-1 can happen from general 
    interactions 
    such as eating from the same utensils, sharing 
    lip balm, or 
    kissing. The virus spreads more quickly when an 
    infected 
    person is experiencing an outbreak. Additionally, 
    it is 
    possible to get genital herpes from HSV-1 if the 
    individual 
    has had cold sores and performed sexual 
    activities during 
    that time. 
    HSV-2 is contracted through forms of sexual 
    contact with a 
    person who has HSV-2. It is estimated that  around 20  
    percent of sexually active adults within the 
    United States 
    have been infected with HSV-2, according to the 
    American 
    Academy of Dermatology (AAD). ( AAD ) While 
    HSV-2 
    infections are spread by coming into contact 
    with a herpes 
    sore, the AAD reports that most people get 
    HSV-1 from an 
    infected person who is asymptomatic, or does 
    not have 
    sores. 
    having multiple sex partners 
    being female 
    having another sexually transmitted infection 
    (STI) 
    having a weakened immune system
