The Mercer disease, also known as MRSA (short for Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus, which is the bacteria that causes the disease), is a highly contagious disease. It is a type of Staphylococcus bacterium, which means that this bacterium can cause many different types of diseases, and is hard to kill as it is immune to antibiotics. It is important to know the symptoms of Mercer disease so that one will be able to take action from preventing it from becoming worse.
There are several symptoms of Mercer disease. The first symptom that one would notice would be the skin infection. They appear to look something like a blister rash, painful boils or red, swollen abscess with pus, are often mistaken as a spider bite for the first few days. As mentioned earlier, the disease is caused by a staph bacterium, and in this case, if it infects the lungs, it can develop into Staphylococcal pneumonia. Symptoms of infection of lungs include flu-like symptoms like shortness of breath and coughing, as well as fever and chills.

Having the lungs infected with this disease makes the disease more contagious as the bacteria can be dispersed into the air. The organs like the bladder, urinary tract, heart and bloodstream are also one of the more common infected areas. If it is left untreated, it can lead to terminal complications. Other than that, Mercer can infect almost anywhere on a person's body, which will develop in different ways, like low blood pressure, joint pain, severe headaches, fever and chills.
As curing is a difficult thing to do, the best thing to do to avoid contracting such a disease is to prevent it from spreading. Mercer disease can easily spread through touching, kissing, breathing, and sharing food or drinks. While it is difficult from avoiding all these, one can always boost their immune system by keeping a hygienic lifestyle, as well as sticking to a healthy diet rich with vitamins A, C, and D.
