staph infection causing skin boils?


Question:
I am a very clean person and health freak, so when I got a boil I immediatly went to my doctor he said I had staph infection and I could of gotten it at the gym.I took meds. and evently it went away,but after that I had 3 more in different places everytime they tell me it is staph even after 3 antibiotic shots.Why is this happening and has anyone else had this?

Answers:
Really you should throw out all your gym clothes and towels. Buy new ones and always wash in hot water with bleach and dry on hottest setting in the dryer for at least one hour. You should probably treat your bedding and home towels the same way since this bacteria can stay in your fabrics. Your doc should have suggested these to you as well as using anti-bacterial soap. If your breakouts are always coming back in the same area, think about your clothing, is it near your underwear or do you use any athletic braces? Throw out anything that may be causing you to be re-infected.
maybe its not staph maybe you've been doin something new like a new food or soap or something and you're allergic to it.
