Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have MRSA (Multi drug Resistant staphylococcus aureus) infection. You should go for sensitivity testing. It is resistant to routine antibiotics so sensitivity test gives you ides that which antibiotics are more effective. Then you should take that antibiotics. You should also check your sugar level. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
