I already know I have MRSA. At the moment it is inactive....I think. I have several sores in my mouth and wonder if they are a product of the MRSA. I truly don't know.

I have personally tried this and have had this recommended this as well for myself. As I have got MRSA back in 2005. Every day when brushing your teeth use Listern mouthwash and swish it around and spit it out. It may burn a little at first however water it down a little so it is not so strong but build up to it though to be full strength.

YES YES YES.I went on iv meds for 3 months due to mouth sores had to have exstensive work done by dentist and oral surgon to cut it out.It is very deadly in the mouth it can get into your system and cause alot of things, even a heart attck.My docs acted faster when I had a sore in the mouth than anywhere else.Get checked, even if it isn't MRSA you can get perscription mouthwash that helps and proper antibiotics for the infection you do have so it dosn't turn to MRSA.Please let me know how you are doing,I hope it clears up soon hugs and prayers
