Hi
See since you have developed a staph infection, it is very essential to start with the treatment of Nick antibiotics as soon as possible so as to prevent the further spread of the infection.
You should also take Care and maintain proper and adequate local cleanliness.
Clean the affected area with a topical antiseptic lotion atleast twice a day.
Apply a topical antibiotic cream over it twice a day.
You might in addition need a course of oral antibiotics as well.
