I have a history of staph infections and folliculitis on my inner thighs. I've always worn pads, but am seriously contemplating switching to tampons or the menstrual cup. But I'm kind of scared because I understand that TSS is caused by the staph bacteria. I also have moderate-heavy flows and the infections flare up every couple of months. What do you think: should I even risk it?
Skin (staph) infection history...tampons safe?
I would NOT suggest you use them, AT ALL!
