[|AI|]  Hello dear, Thank you for your contact to Chat Doctor. I read and understand your concern. I am Chat Doctor answering your concern. Yes, MRSA can be grown to any site. It will transfer via blood to any site, so it can also transfer to GI tract also. Yes, it is completely treatable, if you take the proper antibiotics it will be treated. Without completing the course it will be very difficult to cure it. If you do not cure it completely, there are chances that it will recurring after dome tines. It is contagious and can also be transferred to other relatives via use of handkerchief and other household materials. Mupirocin can be used over the area like umbilicus, groin and axial to remove the residual MRSA. Please maintain regular hygiene as it is equally important as getting antibiotics. I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/ Chat Doctor. Thank you, ChatDoctorInfectious diseases specialist, ChatDoctor.
