hello! I have a question for you guys, so I believe I have a staph infection in my leg towards the ankle, I've never had one before but I've been told that it looks like one, I had a cut in the spot it's at and was perfectly fine then I woke up one day and it was hard and area was hot, next day the area got dark red with little bumps around it and more of the area got hard with a swollen white outline outside of the red center. No pus or oozing of any kind, it itches horriblely, I've been keeping a eye on it, now it looks like to the right of it is a small patch that feels like the rest, hard, hot, and itches. does this sound like staph? if it is what should I do? I did some Google search and it says it's contagious?? so how do I go about protecting my fiance from getting this? I got Bactrim antibiotics and mupirocin gel. any tips, suggestions ECT is greatly appreciated. sorry for the long post lol.
