Staph Infections
Staph infections, which often occur when Staphylococcus bacteria come into contact with small cuts in the skin, are a significant concern for affected individuals. Some forms of staph infection are relatively mild, but in the majority of circumstances, a staph infection can cause serious medical consequences which require immediate attention. Staph infections are a common concern for hospitalized individuals, who may have intravenous surgical lines and incision sites which are highly prone to infection.
