Okay, so the MRSA infection is around my school and I just now got this thing on the side of my face that looks like a spider bite. I don't know but I think it might be MRSA! How can I know for sure?

Dillon, I really feel for you on this one! I just went through a MRSA scare with my 14 year old daughter this past week, which, thankfully, was just that...a scare! The ONLY way to know for sure whether or not you have it is to see your doctor and have a culture done. Please have your parents get you into the doctor just as soon as possible.
In the meantime, this is information we were given by our doctor. Keep the area covered (I know this is hard, considering it's on your face), do NOT touch it, wash your hands well, and use hand sanitizer. And on the chance that you do have MRSA, be careful about skin contact while awaiting your culture results.

Usually you can get it in a place where there is hair and it looks like a spider bit. If it looks like that and then it gets deep you have mrsa but go to a doctor if you are really that concerned. Where is your skool in east stroudsburg, pennsylvania because my school has that too.

It would need to be cultured to diagnose MRSA. You really need to get to the doctor. MRSA is everywhere, it just needs an opening into the body to get you sick.

I would go to the hospital... Just to have it checked out.. If it really hurts/painful than it could very well be MRSA... Keep it covered and clean and wash your hands... good luck

Go to the doctor and check it out.
Ugh, my brother has a rash on his arm, so we looked it up on google images. My eyes started watering and I wanted to puke. I don't suggest you look at them, but if you want to know what it looks like you can try that.

See a physician, that would be the way to know for sure.
The other way would be assume its not and leave it untreated and find out it really is the hard way.
