Mrsa again?

2018-03-25 05:33:56
A year ago I had a deep tissue mrsa infection in my back. 2 week stay in hospital on iv antibiotics. Over the last two days that area right where my drain scar is has been sore. There is a hard silver dollar sized lump and the area is bruised looking. Should I be worried it's an mrsa infection in that spot again? It's a 8 on pain scale in that area.
