MRSA Rising In Kids' Ear, Nose, Throat infections
Health Related
Researchers say they found an "alarming" increase in children's ear,
nose and throat infections nationwide caused by dangerous
drug-resistant staph germs. Other studies have shown rising numbers of
skin infections in adults and children caused by these germs, nicknamed
MRSA, but this is the first nationwide report on how common they are in
deeper tissue infections in the head and neck, the study authors said.
These include certain ear and sinus infections, and abcesses that can
form in the tonsils and throat.
