A member asked:
Is it common to have red itchy skin after a staph infection has resolved?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: As long as it continues to fade away, the irritation of the infection may take some time to clear. If worsening occurs (without you scratching or bumping the area) you should recheck in with your practitioner.
