MRSA Prior to Plastic Surgery and Antibiotic Allergies, What Antibiotic Options Are there if I Have a TT?

I was told last summer that I may have had a MRSA infection. It was never cultured or tested, but I was given medications to treat it as if it was one. My question is two parts: Am I still a candidate for a tummy tuck if I have had a MRSA infection in the past? I am allergic to Pennicillian, Zythromax (Z-Pack), Clindamycin and Sulfa Drugs. Are there still antibiotic options for me if I have a tummy tuck?
A: Tummy tuck

The past history should not preclude you from having a tummy tuck. However, yourmplasticmsurgeon may want to perform a nasal swap to see if you are colonized. If the answer is yes some preoperative treatment might be suggested. There are other antibiotics that can be used at the time of surgery.

A: Tummy tuck At three weeks after surgery it would be normal to have swelling in the flanks if liposuctions was performed. You Need to ask your plastic surgeon what was performed. Although many plastic surgeons will perform liposuction at the time there are others that will not.
