Can staph facial infection be spread by a pillowcase?

Hello,
Facial staph infection can spread by skin to skin contact or when people are living in close groups but also when people with skin infections share things like bed linens, towels, or clothing. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your dermatologist. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
