A member asked:
Had a wound culture done the results said "no anaerobic growth in 72 hours" "aerobic growth staphylococcus aureus heavy growth", "skin flora heavy growth?" does this need to be treated with a antibiotic?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A wound culture that is positive for staphylococcus aureus should be treated. The presence of staph flora is commonly found on skin but in the setting of a wound it will be treated .
