How do I tell if I have staph infection?

I break out on my legs with acne, and get dry itchy skin. I however have no pain. This has been since high school. I am now 25, and have been told that it may be staph infection. If i have no pain/ green puss am I safe? Or should i bite the bullet and pay for a doctor? PLEASE TAKE IN MIND I HAVE NO INSURANCE

Can you go to a walk in clinic? They are less expensive than a private Dr. office. I think you need to be evaluated for sure, why are you putting up with a chronic condition that might be cleared up with just a visit or two and a round of antibiotics?





And be sure to ask for a generic or lower cost prescription if it is a available.





Good luck!
