Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, or MRSA for short, is a type of bacterial infection that typically affects the skin. In many cases, the infection is relatively mild, resulting in a red bump on the skin (similar in appearance to a spider bite). This bump (or cluster of bumps) may be swollen, painful, and warm, and may also contain pus or other drainage.
