It's been awhile since I've used this forum but I'm actually freaking out because I think I've contracted MRSA. I recently got a job as a cook in a restaurant and one of trainers told me he had MRSA but told me "Don't worry, It's not that contagious." At that time I had no idea what MRSA even was but of course I googled it and learned about it. I'm still a bit iffy on it but I got this hives looking rash on my arm. I've gotten those years before I even started working here. Second I have this cut on my finger, right before the knuckle. I'm not sure what it is but the best way I can describe it is road rash. Where the top layer of the skin is rubbed off. I've also experienced this from lifting weights and having them rub on my knuckles. I was laying with my girlfriend and started rubbing my finger on the wooden board of the bed and that's how I logically think I got it but I think I'm having a health anxiety relapse so all my logic goes out the windowv. Lastly, I have this bug bite looking mark right above my rib cage. It itches and simply faded in about 4 hours. I really f*cked myself by looking at Google images of MRSA and only one picture matched what is on my finger, everything else looks like boils and abscess which I don't have. The only reasons I can't convince myself I don't have it is because a coworker told me he has it so it's a possibility.
