Are you saying she keeps getting staph infections? I take it she's been to the Dr and has taken antibiotics? The best thing to do is keep the area as clean as you can. Staph is infectious so you have to be careful with anyone she comes into physical contact with. It seems that people who get one staph infection are prone to others for some reason.

If they continue, I would take her back to her physician, some infections are harder than others to alleviate. In the meantime, please make sure that she does not come in contact with anyone, staph is pretty infectious.

Yes she has been to several different drs. All they say is that staph is on the skin that nothing can be done about it that its not a chemical imbalance and its not in her blood and for some reason it likes to pop up on her a lot. They told me that the kind she has is not going to be spread to others which is true cause if it wasn't me and the rest of my family would have got it already and we have tried everything from antibiotics, natural diapers, colloidal silver, salt baths, and activated charcoal bandages. The only things that help some what is the silver and the charcoal and that's because the charcoal will draw the infection out and silver will help to keep it down but its starting to not work anymore and she's very hard to potty train she refuses to tell us that she has to go to the bathroom until after she has gone in her diaper.

I would let her run around naked but she would use the restroom on the floor and we have white carpet so I can't and won't do that and its the same thing with panties we lost a whole pack for that reason

When you've taken her to the Dr are they Dermatologist's? Do the Drs think the staph infections are because she's not potty trained yet and bacteria is staying on her skin?
Yes, like I mentioned in my above post, it seems like once you get one of these infections your prone to get more.
We have a child health forum here at Medhelp so you might want to go there to get tips from other moms about potty training. Hopefully once she is potty trained these staph infections will stop. I really wish I could give you a cure for this but I just don't know of any that you have'nt already tried.   Remar
