I have seen many cases of MRSA bacteremia. Currently the trend in my country is changing towards methicillin sensitivity luckily, which is not the case in the northern hemisphere.
That's probably the focus since the bug lives on our skin and also in the hair follicle. I remember one I saw for a large pimple on a rugby player. But never for manscaping.
It is good practice, beyond starting treatment with Daptomycin or Vancomycin, to take control blood cultures after 48 hours and eventually perform at least one transthoracic echocardiogram, Even though one is sure of the source, the bacteria has a high affinity for heart valves.
