A member asked:
Can you please tell me what i did wrong to get chronic bacterial skin infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Perhaps nothing: Difficult to know what you mean by bacterial skin infections, but if these are boils that some people call spider-bites they may be due to methicillin-resistant staph aureus. You do not necessarily have to do anything "wrong" to get these, but occasionally they can be produced by your coming in direct contact with lesions in another person.
