What is a Impetigo?
Impetigo is a bacterial infection of the skin that presents as a yellow-gold or honey-colored crust on a wound. It is typically found around the nose and mouth, on the hands, forearms and diaper area of young children. Impetigo isn’t a severe condition. However, if left untreated, it can lead to more serious infections and scarring.
