Staphylococcus aureus is a bacterium that is resistant to many antibiotics,there are a few antibiotics that can cure S. Aureus.it can be present in the nose, on the skin, or in the blood or urine. It can spread among other patients who are usually very ill with weakened immune systems that cannot fight off the infection.
It is usually spread through physical contact--not through the air. It is usually spread by direct contact (e.g., skin-to-skin).
I often write that one mistake that most ladies make is that once they experience itching in their private part, they go to chemists to buy drugs to stop the itching. Once the itching stops, they feel they are okay and free, not knowing that they have only cured the infection externally but internally, the infection is still there. The internal infection may not show any serious symptoms for some years, but it will gradually be affecting the internal reproductive organs. When such women now get married, they now find it difficult to conceive, running from one gynecologist to another. Such a lady could have saved herself and her husband from such trouble if only she had done the right thing at the right time.

If you are a lady and at one time or another, you have treated one infection or another, especially a venereal disease, you have to make sure that you are totally cured.

Same goes with men. Most men are usually not aware of the fact that in most cases of infertility, they are the guilty party. Once a man thinks that since he is sexually active and can go more than two rounds of sexual intercourse in a night, he believes that nothing is wrong with him. But this is a fallacy because being sexually active is not an indication of being fertile. Although there are various reasons that can lead to infertility in men, from his kind of lifestyle, his diet, the nature of his occupation and any history of venereal disease. But what we are particularly concerned about now is the male infertility that is caused by venereal disease, when a man contracts a venereal disease and if not well treated or cured, could lead to staphylococcal infection. Most times staphylococcal infection in men is not easily detected until it has done a lot of damage to his reproductive organs.
Staphylococcal infections can lead to erectile dysfunction in men. Erectile dysfunction is the inability of a man to produce a consistent or maintain an erection of the penis sufficient to have a sexual intercourse. Erectile dysfunction is also referred to as sexual impotence.
So if well treated,couples can have kids

. A number of eczema treatments are available, but steroid creams and antibiotics are preferred. The causes of eczema are as follows,it often occurs with allergies and frequently occurs in families in which members have eczema, This condition results from direct contact with one of many irritants or allergens — such as poison ivy; jewelry containing nickel; and certain cleaning products, perfumes and cosmetics and lastly This condition is common in people with oily skin or hair, and it may come and go depending on the season. It's likely that hereditary factors play a role in this condition

FIRST STEPS TO TREATING ECZEMA

If you have eczema, it is important to take good care of your skin. Take warm (not hot!) baths on a regular basis and immediately applying moisturizers afterward will help keep your skin moist. ... Take prednisolone one tab daily, cetirizine tab, hydrocortisone cream and most times shea butter can do the work (Shea butter is known especially for its cosmetic properties as a moisturizer and emollient. Shea butter absorbs rapidly into the skin without leaving a greasy feeling.

Certain lotions or body washes may cause this irritation if it is scented. It clogs the skin pore resulting in the red bumps and rash. Use mild soap and unscented lotion when needed. Newborn babies skin takes a while to become accustomed to the new environment
Another cause could be an overheated baby getting too hot and the pores sweat out and get clogged. You can use 1.0% Hydrocortisone Anti-itch cream for 2 days twice a day and use shea butter as a cream for him
Lastly, Baby acne is very common and usually harmless. I believe the best advice is to leave it alone. Many moisturizers have alcohol, petrolatum or mineral oil which actually make acne worse. Overly washing can dry out the skin which in turn causes the skin to secrete more sebum. Acne can be caused by hormonal changes in the newborn. It is normal and it will go away. Make sure to use gentle fabric detergent for the clothes and bedding. Be sure to pat the face after the bath and don't rub. Also, don't try to "pop" the whiteheads. Good luck!

reelup1: Can intake of Antibiotic destroys Good bacteria in the body?

antibiotics have acute, short-term ill effects, ranging from rashes to diarrhoea, and chronic long-term ill effects. The long term effects are more worrying. Anyone taking broad spectrum antibiotics continually over a period of years becomes extremely vulnerable to invasion by other bacterial species, fungi and viruses. Overuse of antibiotics, in particular ampicillin and tetracyclines, is resulting in a generation of new strains of ‘superbugs’ - bacteria which have become resistant to the very drugs designed to destroy them.

Whenever someone is having pain in the belly button area, it is important to make sure that it is not a serious problem. In particular, if the pain is severe or worsening, if you have any fever, or if there are any associated symptoms, such as nausea or vomiting then you need to see a Doctor. This is because appendicitis, which is an emergency that requires surgery, is a condition that often presents with sharp severe pains initially in the belly button area. Other, less serious causes of pain in this area include gas distention and indigestion. If you feel like you may have indigestion, you may want to take an over the counter gas or heartburn remedy to see if this makes a difference. If not, you should see your doctor. Constipation can also cause pain in the abdomen, and it can often be relieved by drinking more fluids, taking more fiber, and perhaps taking a laxative, although more severe cases will require seeing your doctor. If there is any redness of the skin over the navel or discharge of pus from the navel, then this may be a skin infection, which would also require medical attention. Again, please discuss with your doctor!

hormeiza: Pls need help @all the PHARM in the house what are the best drugs for treating GONORRHEA. #2. What causes pepperish feeling in the headcap of the pennis. Thanks and God bless

1. If you miss doses or don't take the full course of medicine, the gonorrhea infection may not be cured.Gonorrhea used to be susceptible to penicillin, ampicillin, tetracycline and doxycycline — very commonly used drugs,"But one by one, each of those antibiotics — and almost every new one that has come along since — eventually stopped working. One reason is that the bacterium that causes gonorrhea can mutate quickly to defend itself, so take note there is no best drug but cefizime and ceftriaxone are effective

2. 1. Drink lots of fluids - water, juices at least 6 litres per day
2. Have lots of fruits and veggies
3. If the burning sensation persisits for 2 more days or it increases please undergo the following tests to screen for an UTI - URINE ROUTINE, Urine Culture & Sensitivity.
4. If a sore or blister shows up , the a swab culture test has to be done to rule out any STD'S

VantagePoint: Nice one, Pharm.
I have this on and off pain in my tummy, the lower left side.The pain will build up gradually and becomes very severe only for it to disappear after a few minutes. Afterwards, I have to pee.
The attacks are not frequent, maybe once every month, but when they come it is extremely painful.
What could be the cause?
Is there any drug I can use?

Based on your description and location of your pain, it could be related to your gastrointestinal tract. Some of the potential causes that can cause pain in left lower abdomen would be diverticulitis, constipation, IBS. Dont take any Asprin or Ibuprofen because they will make it worse, take paractemol instead. Try go for colonoscopy test. Its nothing serious but without any test I can't be so sure. Do you have ulcer ? You can run a test also but for now take only a mild pain relief till a test is run

Madam. Its important we teach ppl d rite things
STIs are sexually transmitted infections of d genital tract in both sexes examples are gonorrhea, sypillis, chlamydia, genital warts, trichomoniasis etc.
Staphylococcus, I repeat staphylococcus aureus or any other specie does not cause STI.
This myth is promoted by those hungry alternative therapy advertisements on newspaper pages. Staph does not invade the genital tract except in immune deficiency such as HIV, diabetes, TB, Liver failure etc. It may cause Urinary tract Infection UTI but not STI.
