What Causes Cellulitis Post MMR Vaccination?
Hello, Cellulitis occurs when bacteria, most commonly streptococcus and staphylococcus, enter through a crack or break in your skin. The incidence of a more serious staphylococcus infection called methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is increasing. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Regards, Dr Monish De, Oncologist
