What would I'll be babbling this time...?
Still small bit of skin - some, but not all know that our skin also has it's own living thing - I might guess those who read this will first think out lices, mites >.almost correct, but not these giants - they are smaller. They take care of our skin in their own ways.
Without them, our skin could having problem being attacked by other 'invaders'.
Also, if their population is overload could also bring to problem - they invade us instead, causing fever, or worst, death (yes, I mean it - doctors will called it as 'shock' due to a bacteria colony called "Staphylococcus aureus".. ( reader: is this fact has something wrong with the content?! ). Easy example is acne - it is found out that a colony called Propionibacterium acne contribute to acne formation. Acne actually created from white head pimple.
In normal skin (including palm (tapak tangan), soles (tapak kaki), & scalp (kepala)), there'sStaphylococcus epidermidis, Propionibacterium, Peptococcus, & even yeast called Candida albican(actually there's several of them, but I guess lots of website can inform better). They have different living area - some really on the surface, some even in the skin.
Before that, colony here is equal to race in human being. While human has many kinds of races, so do microbs.
