kap26 [50]

furuncles, toxic shock syndrome, and scalded skin syndrome all are caused by staphylococcus aureus.

A syndrome is a collection of related medical indications and symptoms that are frequently linked to a certain disease or disorder. The word comes from the Greek letter v, which stands for "concurrence." 1818 A condition turns into a disease when it has a known cause. Syndromes are frequently given their names from the doctor or group of doctors who first identified them or first reported the whole clinical picture.

Staphylococcus bacteria are what cause staph infections. Many healthy people frequently have these kinds of germs on their skin or in their noses. These bacteria frequently do not harm someone or only cause very small skin diseases. A genus of Gram-positive bacteria belonging to the Staphylococcaceae family of the Bacillales order is called Staphylococcus.
