Need Medication For Staff Infection On Leg

Hello, I am so frustrated with a staff infection I have in my leg. Since 2009 I visited the ER and now have an antibiotic resistant type of staff. I have tried several different natural remedies and still can t seem to kill off the infection. The first time I went to the regular doctor and had to return for a total of 3 visits and over 100 antibiotic pills before it cleared up. The second time I got the same infection, I went back to the same Dr. and they gave the same antibiotic that took over 100 pills to clear my infection the first time. I figured I would try to kill it off with natural remedies so it doesn t continue to return. So far nothing I have tried has been able to get rid of it and I have been suffering with this infection for over 6 months now. Have you been able to recommend other remedies besides the antibiotics that are not really working anymore?
