Skin, soft tissue, and musculoskeletal system infections
In this section, I have shared all the videos relevant to the new pattern. After each topic, there is a PPT from Dr. Apurba Sastry sir.
1. Staphylococcal Infections
When I studied microbiology – we always started with Staph. It is still as naughty as it was earlier.

2. beta-hemolytic Streptococcal Infections
This is very common and strep infections are studied in nearly every section. Here we study them in detail.

3. Gas Gangrene and Anaerobic bacteria
This is a very important topic for microbiology as well as surgery.
4. Leprosy
Leprosy is asked a lot in exams and you will see a lot of patients of it in the derma clinic. At some places like where I study – we have a separate Leprosy clinic.
