Staph-infection and skin bridge between glans and shaft

I have had my circumcision 15 days ago, had a staphylococcus infection and take antibiotics right now.

Next to two staph spots that don't want to retreat I mentioned a thin layer of skin between the rim of my penis head and the shaft.

Its about 1.5cm, beginning at the left side of my frenulum.

Is there a way to break this without another surgery?

Also, any tips regarding staph?

My next appointment is this Friday, so I know its best to ask the doctor.

You will need to see how the infection is going once you have completed the course of antibiotics. The possibility of it being MRSA is very low. The skin issue is one for your doc.

What is MRSA and is the skin issue common?

in reply to uugh

MRSA is a staph infection that is resistant to a lot of antibiotics. The skin issue I have not heard of.
