Johnny -- MRSA can be spread via skin-to-skin contact. This means that it can be transmitted sexually. However, it can also spread via more casual contact, thus it is not an "STI" in the traditional sense.
Are you infering, that MRSA is sexually transmitted?
Is the inference here that MRSA may be transmitted sexually? [Is MRSA an STD???] Since this is the site location, of the MRSA in the Ass or Genital areas?
Very useful information.. Thank You.

i have been dealing with a staph like infection for 3 years now, every culture(4) comes back neg, but, my HIV doc is convinced it is some form of staph, so i was put on a double dose of Bactrim which almost killed me, is it possible for a new type of staph to not culture a positive result? i have pimple like weeping sores and a necrotic wound on my right side of my neck, very painful, itchy, after 5 antibiotics this past summer, they have had no effect. i am worried.
