I had multiple staph infections on my hands after a bout with an upper respiratory infection. Now I have a phlebitis in my upper arm on my bicep it is now going farther down my arm. It would also be important to note that the staph infections were all on finger joints. I was able to keep them drained but there was one on a knuckle and the last time I drained it it felt like it went down deeper than the others. Now the index finger is swelled at the bottom were there was no cut. Does this sound like I need to get antibiotics to fix this issue. Thank you for your time! And any help is appreciated!
