Yes, and yes. I'll spare you the details. Look up community-associated MRSA if you want to research it further, though. It can be picked up anywhere, including the gym.
MRSA is a *kitten*.
See a doctor. Get some hibiclens. Stop touching things that other people touch.2 -

I think that is exactly what I have!
I'm looking up the photos and it seems spot on
Weird pimples, Little craters, Large red hard areas >_<
I haven't been to the gym, I've been doing all at home workouts and the only new thing is a new job -_-
Go to the doctor, NOW. Not next week, NOW. If you are diagnosed with MRSA, you could give it to your pets and family members. So have them checked out as well.
I'll go as soon as I can!
If you are contagious, waiting is incredibly irresponsible.
Well do you want to pay for my Doctor bills11 -
Are you showering shortly after working out?0

No, I pay for my own doctor bills, specifically when I might have something contagious. I consider it my responsibility as an adult member of society.
While some people get through it just fine, others die from MRSA infections. I'd rather not be responsible for killing anyone <shrug>

The amount and severity of them has drastically decreased4 -

I honestly don't think it's a dig or an attempt to shame you. Sometimes people don't fully appreciate the seriousness of these types of infections. Home remedies aren't usually enough to cure the infection. It would be irresponsible of us not to recommend that you visit a doctor. I'm sorry you don't have access to affordable medical care That's rough.5 -

I wanted to make sure you understood the consequences. I'm sorry if it came off as "shaming". Lots of times people say "I can't afford to go the doctor" when what they really mean is "I can't afford to go to the doctor and continue to pay for all this other stuff I like to have so I'll just gut it out" not realizing the danger they are putting others in.
I've gone to the doctor, gotten the bill, and then spent a few months eating lots of canned tuna and ramen noodles and skipping nights out and canceling my cable for a few months. It sucks, but it's an informed decision I made.
My mom spent a month in the hospital with a MRSA infection, so I know the consequences of community infection.
If you can't go then you can't go, but I would hope you are avoiding touching anywhere you have this rash to any public surface and avoiding ANY close contact with children, elderly, and immune-compromised individuals.8 -

No but if you did have MRSA it'd be awesome if you didn't spread it to someone and end up killing them.11
