I just wanted to share this. My daughter had skin CAMRSA when she was 15 months (It is likely that i brought it home from the hospital). She was treated with bactrim and lanced. After treatment, small dots of MRSA came back about 3 months later and some began to develop into small pus-filled pimples. I was very frustrated with the treatment options, because all they seem to do is built up resistance.
I began tea tree oil application and she did really well. She has 2 incidents of very light break outs, but it has been 9 months since the last one. Lesions go away within 24 hours of multiple applications and she has not had an abscess since she was diagnosed (she is 4.5 years now).
This stuff smells horrible, but it works so well.
