Coming soonA *Staphylococcus aureus* traumatic skin lesion infection is a secondary acute bacterial skin and skin structure infection (ABSSSI) affecting the epidermis, dermis, or subcutaneous tissues following physical disruption of the cutaneous barrier.
It typically occurs across pediatric and adult populations following mechanical injury, such as lacerations, abrasions, puncture wounds, or burns.
Pathophysiologically, opportunistic colonization or inoculation of *Staphylococcus aureus* leads to local bacterial replication, immune cell recruitment, and tissue destruction mediated by staphylococcal enzymes and exotoxins.
Clinically, this presentation is characterized by cardinal signs of localized inflammation around the wound margins, including expanding erythema, edema, warmth, purulence or serosanguinous drainage, crusting, and localized pain.
