Eva R. Parker, MD, associate professor of dermatology at Vanderbilt University Medical Center and president of the Nashville Dermatologic Society addressed how climate change, such as heat and humidity, can increase the incidence of skin infections during the annual American Academy of Dermatology meeting today in New Orleans.
Parker said she sees more staph infections in summer months than winter months because the heat from hot weather increases chances of bacteria growth.
