VO-NAT Symptoms include any kind of skin

redness, boils or absesses.

In more severe cases, they can
also cause fever, nausea and vomiting.

Treatment involves antibiotics
that specifically attack this organism.


They're taken orally and put in
the nose- that's where people carry the
staph infection.

Skin washes are also used.


To prevent staph infection
doctors say you should wash your hands
regularly and cover any open cuts or
wounds- because that's where the staph
infection can enter your body.
