Can I go tanning with MRSA?

So the results are back and I have mrsa;( but it’s on a wound next to my knee, the infection was taken care of so now my doc says I just need to focus on healing the wound. But anyway I was wondering if it’s safe to go in a tanning bed with it? It won’t touch the bed at all and if it does I’ll put alchahol on it. But would it make my wound worse? Or Is it ok to do?

Answer #1

It would be ok to go and get a tan as long as its a stand up tanning bed and then you would be sure not to touch with your knee.
