Where is the staph infection located?

All boils are staph to some degree. Most are just minor cases our immune system destroys on its own. Multiple boils or boils that are alarmingly large (not just an overgrown pimple) are also signs for concern.

You want to mix up 1 teaspoon of tumeric (get it as fresh as possible, some private grocers hand package their own herbs) in half a glass of water 3 times a day. Some mix it into milk instead with honey for taste. Don't take capsules of tumeric. Tumeric capsules have been very suspicious lately and have lead to the deaths of people (liver damage) not because of the tumeric but because of whatever other garbage the company mixes in with it. Stick to the grocer, organic is the way I always go.

Then take a good acidopholis (do your research) OR LIVE yogurt (not the cheap Dannon's stuff) everyday.

Drink plenty of water. Tumeric can cause dehydration if you don't keep up with good water intake.

DO NOT try to apply heat to boils or pop them (this can spread the infection through your blood).

Be careful staph can kill you if it develops too much. If you begin to feel ill (not just skin problems) go to a doctor immediately before it gets too severe.

If you follow what I said, you should clear up in 2 weeks or so tops. If it sticks around any longer, you could have one of the rarer types that need medical attention whether you like it or not.

Shoot me a pm to let me know how you're doing in a week or two.

That's something I'd say you really need to go to the doc for. And i never say that. You can apply for emergency medical coverage through the county or state after you're checked in. You could end up losing a body part or dying.

It depends butterfly. She doesn't know what it is, which means it's minor if it is staph. Everything, even the common cold can kill you. Too much salt, too much water, etc. all can kill you. If she is running a fever and has a boil the size of a golf ball...yeah, then I'd be worried but then again that would be a nobrainer that it was staph!

Ok but why risk it? My bff had staph twice and it's seriously nothing to mess with.

Because some people don't have the money to. Government aid isn't given out like candy, and it doesn't cover everything.

I don't have a good enough insurance for oral surgery I need on my wisdom tooth. My daughter is fully covered, I am not. I have an abcessed tooth I'm currently treating with natural medicine. I'll continue to do so until I can afford the oral care. If I don't have to put my family in debt more so than we already are, I'm not going to. Especially when garlic, salt water and green tea is clearing it up beautifully. I will eventually need to go through with the surgery because the tooth is impacted, but I can hold off until we get in a more secure financial situation. Sure, life is more important than money, but unfortunately, in this world, if you don't have money, you live on the streets, and I've been there already for a short time, I won't dare let my daughter. Unless you know how it feels to be poor, you shouldn't judge others who fear it.

Antibiotics are not always the answer either. Today people are so overly medicated, antibiotics are no longer having the same effect. People are needing to take increased amounts or a different form of it. If someone has a mild illness with no warning signs, and no underlying conditions, they should use natural cures first. We would have healthier people in this world. Prescription drugs have more side effects than benefits. They should only be taken when absolutely necessary.

Besides that, there are MANY forms of staph. Right now, you have staph bacteria on your body, and so do I. When we get a cut the bacteria can get inside and spread. Then if someone else contacts this area or something that touched this area, it can spread to them without ever having to cut themselves.

When someone's immune system is low, then this bacteria can get out of control without any warning. That's when it's severe because the body's natural defense system is down and it cannot eliminate the bacteria alone. That's why it's very important to keep balance in your body through what you eat and include immune boosting foods with vitamin C. Your "bff" must not be 100% healthy or isn't taking care of him/herself well. I would suggest a TCM practioner to find the imbalance in his/her body so it doesn't repeat. My uncle was one (as well as a nutrition specialist) and he helped countless people, including myself.

No I hear you. I drink cranberry juice for most infections. And no she's diabetic so her immune system isn't 100%, I never said it was, I was Js I know how serious staph can be because I'm close to someone who has had it. And its not something I'd personally take a chance with.

I understand. I use apple cidar vinegar in grape or apple juice for UTIs =)

Most staph infections are minor though. Diabetics have it tough because any injury to the body or illness, can lead to major complications.

I would advise to find pumpkin and bitter almond oil,it's a best medicine for everything. Please google for this items and you will see the benefits of this oil. Regards :-)
