Brief Answer:
Please, upload a scanned copy of the culture results!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about these culture findings and all the inconveniences this has caused you. Staph is a common contaminant in culture and in most cases would not need to be treated unless there are XXXXXXX signs of an infection. I will suggest that you upload the results and report any symptoms to me for analysis so that we can make the decision to treat or not. Being in Nigeria, it would be possible to get the antibiotics without a prescription from your treating doctor but first, let us get the results to make sure you need antibiotics at this time.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
