could bring up many possibilities I have not raised and would be able to specify which of these sites might be more likely to be contaminated with Staph vs other bacteria. If they are able to culture a "pimple" they might even be able to do better detective work. Sometimes they use nose cultures to track carriers (sometimes asymptomatic) of infection as well, I believe.

Hope some of this helped!
