Staphylococcus bacteria are one of the most common causes of skin infection. There are many kinds of staphylococcal skin infections. The least serious is folliculitis, an infection of a hair root that produces a slightly painful pimple at the base of a hair. Most of these infections are minor (pimples and boils) however. Staphylococcus bacteria may also cause serious infections. Impetigo causes shallow, fluid-filled blisters and may itch or hurt. Staphylococcus skin abscesses are warm, painful, collections of pus below the skin surface and staphylococcus cellulitis is a spreading infection that develops under the skin producing pain and redness. More serious skin infections include toxic epidermal necrolysis and scalded skin syndrome in newborns. 

Dose-dependent adverse effects on the skin and mucous membranes are observed most commonly, including cheilitis, mucous membrane dryness, epistaxis, dry eyes, blepharoconjunctivitis, erythematous eruptions, and xerosis. Alteration of epidermal surfaces may facilitate Staphylococcus aureus colonization and, rarely, subsequent infection. Hair loss, exuberant granulation tissue formation, photosensitivity, and dark adaptation dysfunction are rarer occurrences.
