However, there are more than 20 species in the staph family of bacteria which can cause different types of illness or skin infections which include Impetigo, Folliculitis, Cellulitis and Boils.Staphylococcus Skin Infection also known as Staph Skin Infection is caused by a Staphylococcus Aureus bacterium which can live harmlessly on skin surface for a period of time. The problem begins when there is some cut or wound on the skin or it is broken for any reason and Staph bacteria enters the wound and causes an infection.
