8.4 Summary<br />

Due to the potential seriousness of these <strong>in</strong>fections, rout<strong>in</strong>e cultur<strong>in</strong>g of carbuncles<br />

and furuncles should be performed to determ<strong>in</strong>e if CA-MRSA is present.<br />

The lack of recognition and understand<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> the medical and athletic communities<br />

has allowed herpes gladiatorum to flourish and be commonly mis<strong>in</strong>terpreted as<br />

recurrent bacterial folliculitis.<br />

Lack of compliance with treatment is the most significant reason for failure <strong>in</strong><br />

treat<strong>in</strong>g fungal <strong>in</strong>fections.<br />
