I don't know if I'm just over-reacting or what, but I'm really worried about my Mom. My Mom got her dental abscess cut and her bone scraped.
Today she told me she got some new sores or something in her mouth.
I'm reading about MRSA and I'm so scared. I don't know if I'm being rational.
I don't want my Mom to die. I also don't trust her dentist.
She's not eating well. She's a small person. I'm afraid she will become weak.
What should I do?

Scraping the bone will start the healing process over again. She probably has new tissue growing over the wound. DOnt worry about MRSA. The internet is a dangerous thing when your worried. PS why dont you call the dentist tomorrow and tell them whats up to out your mind at rest.

I think MRSA is mostly a hospital-based infection that people get in hospitals when their immune systems are weakened.
