Americans Love To Stay Clean

Americans spend an exorbitant amount of money to maintain “cleanliness” in an attempt to reduce infections. In 2009, $7.3 billion was spent in the US on cleaning products with $2.4 billion on soaps and over $900 million on antibacterial chemicals. In athletes, especially those in close skin contact with teammates and opponents, infections from Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Ringworm (also called Tinea Corporis) are quite common. Whether from direct skin-to-skin contact, equipment, or mat surfaces the risk of acquiring a skin infection is a known and real. So it is important to keep skin and contact surfaces as clean as possible to reduce transmission. But at what cost?

MRSA A New Scourge Affecting Everyone

MRSA bacteria has blossomed, although not in a good way, over the past 15 years to be the single most prevalent cause of skin related abscesses (boils). Primarily affecting youth and young adults, it is often thought to be a ‘spider bite’ that progresses to a simple boil. Treatment with incision and drainage (lancing) is usually adequate, but occasionally antibiotics are necessary. The problem lies in reoccurrence of the infection. Once an individual has an outbreak, there is a 50% chance of reoccurrence over the next year. Simple hygienic principles like washing with soap and water or using cleansing agents can reduce this risk of repeated MRSA infection.

Ringworm, the other common skin infection, is caused by dermatophyte, T. tonsurans and can affect up to 70% of high school wrestlers each season. This fungal infection spreads by direct contact with the skin of an infected individual or contaminated surface. Ringworm is extremely contagious and can spread easily and rapidly throughout a wrestling team. The fungal infection is superficial, but can be a nuisance for athletes like wrestlers who must pass skin inspections on a near daily basis to practice and compete. Treatment with topical antifungal creams are generally effective, but occasionally oral medications are required. The treatment may take up to 6 weeks to fully eradicate the fungus. Ringworm is a huge issue for wrestlers it often takes daily skin checks, along with meticulous skin hygiene to reduce and control this skin condition.
