my son had staph in his feet all of last summer and the doctor told us that the worst thing that we could do for it would be to cover it. It needs to air out so that it can dry up and go away. Don't put neosporin on it. you should only put a perscription antibiotic cream on it. Please tell her to go to the doctor before it spreads to other parts of her body.

take her to the doctor...it could be MRSA

don't cover it
it will make it not dry out

she could have MRSA take her to a doctor immeditally and dont cover it bad idea
