Impetigo

This is an acute superficial infection of the skin caused by bacteria. This infection is common in pre-school children and young adults.

​​The infection appears as skin blisters which later break down to become superficial sores with golden-yellow "stuck on" crusts on the surface. Common sites affected are the face, arms, buttocks and legs.

​​Consult your doctor.
​ Antibiotic cream or pills are necessary.
