The other day, I was in the shower. When I was finished I turned off the faucet and attempeted to move my foot back, which hit the faucet spout. Now I have a small peiece of skin on the heel of my foot. It has black stuff in it and it still hurts, even though it was at least a few weeks ago. Now, I poured proxide on it which got some of the remaining germs in it. But my legs hurts, and I mean the whole leg. It not a dear god I wanna die hurt but it aches. Do you think this could be a bad thing?

You may have developed MRSA in the cut. I got it from the tiniest cut between my toes. Is it swollen and red? If not, it probably is not MRSA. Your putting peroxide on the cut is very wise. Did you put this on at the time you cut yourself, as well as just recently? Remember, a little tiny MRSA infection can cause a person to lose limbs, or to die. Take it seriously, and get it checked out.

It is infected and you have to go to a Dr.or the ER. Yes, if left untreated it can kill you.
