  Skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs) span many common infectious diseases, often necessitating immediate treatment and hospitalization. These infections display diverse symptoms and involve microbial invasion in increasing severity levels, affecting the epidermis, dermis, superficial fascia, subcutaneous tissues, and muscle. Among these, complicated SSTIs (cSSTIs) are the most severe, infiltrating deeper soft tissues and encompassing infective conditions like cellulitis, ulcer or wound site infections, surgical site infections, significant abscesses, infected burns, skin ulcers, and diabetic foot ulcers. A dominant causative pathogen in cSSTIs is Staphylococcus aureus, an aerobic Gram-positive coccus, which holds critical epidemiological importance. Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, and Enterococcus spp. have also been recognized as culprits behind cSSTIs. These infections can either involve a single microorganism or a combination, triggering heightened systemic infl...
