How does staphourus? or staphylococcal? cause deep tissue infection?

Ans .Staphylococcal infections are a group of infections caused by bacterium Staphylococcus. The most common of this group of bacteria is Staphylococcus aureus.
One type of Staphylococcal infection that involves skin is called cellulitis and affects the skin's deeper layer. The infection can spread to the deep layer of tissue called the fascial lining.Necrotizing fasciitis is an example of a deep layer tissue infection.
During Staphylococcal infection, Leukocytes (WBC) count are elevated (meaning that the immune system is fighting an infection). An elevated WBC count may not occur in the early stages of an infection.
