MRSA skin conditions CAN be healed!
Recently, doctors in Texas have been seeing an increasing number of patients with MRSA skin infections caused by Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus. This is (“Staph”) a bacterium that are resistant to many antibiotics.
What is a Staph/MRSA skin infection?
It can be a pimple, rash, boil, or an open wound. MRSA skin infection is often misdiagnosed as spider bites. Staph/MRSA infections often begin with an injury to the skin. Symptoms of a Staph infection include redness, warmth, swelling, tenderness of the skin, and boils or blisters. Sometimes it does not cause any problems; sometimes it causes minor infections, such as pimples or boils. If left untreated, it can cause serious skin infections or worse.

How do MRSA skin infections spread?
Staph/MRSA lives on skin and survives on objects for 24 hours or more. The cleanest person can get a Staph/MRSA infection. Antibiotic- resistant Staph/MRSA skin infections are found in places where there are crowds of people (schools, jails, gyms). Staph/ MRSA can rub off the skin of an infected person onto the skin of another person during skin-to-skin contact. Or, the Staph can come off of the infected skin of a person onto a shared object or surface, and get onto the skin of the next person who uses it. Examples of commonly shared objects include towels, soap, benches in hot tubs, and athletic equipment - in other words, anything that could have touched the skin of a Staph infected person can carry the bacteria to the skin of another person.
How can I prevent myself or my family members from getting infected?
- Wash your hands with soap and warm water.
- Keep cuts and scrapes clean with soap and water.
- Avoid skin contact and sharing personal items with anyone you suspect could have a Staph skin infection.
- When using protective gloves to treat infected area, remove and dispose of properly; wash your hands with soap and water after removing them.
- Do not share personal items with other persons who might have skin infections.
If my doctor or healthcare provider has told me that I have a Staph/MRSA skin infection, what can I do to keep others from getting infected?
- Clean your bandages, your hands, and your home.
- Keep the infected area covered with clean, dry bandages.
- Pus from infected wound is very infectious. Wash your hands frequently with soap and warm water, especially after changing your bandages or touching the infected skin.
- Regularly clean your bathroom, kitchen, and all other rooms, as well as your personal items.
- Wash clothes and other items that become soiled with hot water or bleach, when possible. Drying clothes in a hot dryer, rather than air-drying, also helps kill bacteria in clothes.
- Tell any healthcare providers who treat you that you have an antibiotic-resistant Staph/MRSA skin infection.
A Better Way!
Nature has been fighting the same battles as people have against bacteria for ages – and they have developed some very effective defenses. It is not too complicated. We let nature work for us!
We have developed a complete natural treatment system for MRSA. Our 5-Step MRSA Treatment Plan involves:
- An external treatment for mercer skin infections,
- An internal direct mercer treatment and immune system strengthener, and
- A household environment mercer protection for people in the vicinity.
There is much more information on nature’s essential oils and monolaurin in our main articles on this site. If you, or some you love, have MRSA symptoms, we invite you take a closer look in our website at: The 5-Step MRSA Treatment Plan.
