My husband was told his staph was skin at the time of his abcess. I believe he has both skin and bone. His arthopedic sugeron told him skin is the better one to treat however, I don't think 3 months of healing is great but I have seen those in oncology getting treated with IV antibiotic every day 365 days a year! Now, that would be tough to live with. Either way we don't wait around when something doesn't seem right we head to express care. hugs, Sandy
