In a day or two they began to swell and get a little white milky puss in them.the one finger tip went down and looks normal just a little pink.The other is still a little swollen with a small opening.Ive just come down with flu like symptoms strep throat weakness and aching in my joints and body.

I need to make an important distinction. MRSA is a specific bacteria. MRSA infection is an infection caused by that specific bacteria. The two terms are not interchangeable.
There's no way to know if it's "likely" that you now have an MRSA infection based on the information provided. You may have a minor infection in the one fingertip and you may also have influenza. I suggest you see your doctor.

It sounds infected. It may or may not be MRSA. You will have to go to a doctor regardless of the type of bacteria and get antibiotics. You should put an antibacterial cream (polysporin or nepsporin) on the finger tip. The flu-like symptoms could be unrelated. It's that time of year for the flu.

loaches can each so often be harmed by skill of any style of drugs. loaches are scaleless fish. each time you're medicating scaleless fish its ultimate to only use one million/2 the dosage. yet ive been working at fish shops for 5yrs and been in value of the wellness observations and medicating and that i frequently use the finished counseled dosage and infrequently ever had subject concerns. in basic terms make certain you persist with the guidelines and do the mandatory water ameliorations after each therapy, frequently 25% before medicating lower back. in any different case in case you dont water replace than that drugs builds up interior the tank and could than be very risky to scaleless fish.

Sounds like an infection. You should be seen and treated with antibiotics.
