Muscle Pains
Joint pains, sore muscles and other body aches are common with any infection. This symptom may accompany fevers as a result of the body fighting MRSA. Depending on the stage of infection, these can be very painful.
Individuals can reduce body aches and pain with over-the-counter NSAIDs. Rest and taking all prescribed medications can also help relieve general aches and pains from MRSA. For more information about lessening the discomfort, speak with a medical professional.
