    MRSA is a type of staph bacteria that is resistant to certain antibiotics which makes infections from it more difficult to treat. Many people can carry MRSA on their skin or in their nose without symptoms. A MRSA infection typically appears as a red bump or infected area on the skin that should not be popped or picked at, and contacting a healthcare provider is recommended for evaluation and treatment.
