How To Treat Staphylococcus Infection Symptoms?

Hello, I am a 35 yr old male 160 pounds, 15 years ago I had a severe staph infection that left my right groin area sensitive to stress and lack of sleep. I have been experiencing slight tingling in feet and hands. I experience very occasional slight vertigo. My armpits sometimes feel sore, slight tenderness in lymph nodes in groin with no swelling. I also have a slightly swollen lymph node on the left side of my neck and right side of neck is sore with no apparent swollen lymph nodes

Hello dear,

Thank you for your contact to health care magic.

I read and understand your concern.

I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.

Whole of your problem is not related to the staphylococcus infection.

It is the mixture of various problems.

I suggest you to take tab. cetrizine and vitamin B complex for tingling and itching. Take betahistine for vertigo, and tab cefixime for infection. Please take the above medication under your doctors guidance.

This all drugs gives you a symptomatic relief. But exact cause of all this things should be investigated and treated accordingly.

Please do culture and sensitivity from the sore area. Once sensitivity report will come you can take the treatment as per the report. This will make you eligible for change in antibiotics from cefixime to sensitive one.

Please maintain good hygiene this will treat you as equally as taking antibiotics.


I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.

Thank you,
Dr Arun Tank
