It is a superficial infection that progresses quickly, but is usually easily cured if treated promptly. With proper hygiene and early treatment, the infection can be easily controlled and prevented from spreading.  <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">What is impetigo?<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Impetigo is a superficial skin infection caused by the bacteria <strong>Staphylococcus aureus<\/strong> and <strong>Streptococcus pyogenes<\/strong> . The infection begins as a red, itchy sore that quickly turns into a blister or blisters that burst and dry into characteristic honey-colored crusts. <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Types of impetigo:<\/h3>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Non-bowel impetigo (ringed impetigo)<\/strong> :\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The most common form of impetigo, which begins with small blisters or pustules that burst and form honey-colored crusts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It often appears around <strong>the nose<\/strong> , <strong>mouth<\/strong> , and on <strong>the hands<\/strong> and <strong>feet<\/strong> .<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Bullous impetigo<\/strong> :\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>It is characterized by larger, fluid-filled blisters that may remain intact or rupture, leading to the formation of crusts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It occurs more often in <strong>newborns<\/strong> and young children.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Causes and transmission of impetigo<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Impetigo is caused by the bacteria <strong>Staphylococcus aureus<\/strong> and <strong>Streptococcus pyogenes<\/strong> , which infect the superficial layer of the skin. The infection is spread primarily by direct contact with infected skin or through contact with contaminated objects such as <strong>towels<\/strong> , <strong>bedding<\/strong> , or <strong>clothing<\/strong> . It often occurs in groups such as <strong>schools<\/strong> and <strong>daycare centers<\/strong> where children are in close contact.  <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Symptoms of impetigo<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Red, itchy sores that quickly turn into blisters or blisters.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Blisters that burst and form honey crusts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The infection can spread to other parts of the body or to other people.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Treatment of impetigo<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Impetigo is usually easily treated with <strong>antibiotics<\/strong> . Treatment involves using antibiotics in the form of ointments or oral tablets, usually for <strong>7-10 days<\/strong> . Symptoms often improve within a few days of starting treatment, but it is important to complete the course of treatment to prevent the infection from recurring.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Important:<\/strong> If you notice signs of impetigo, see a doctor for appropriate treatment. Early treatment is key to preventing the infection from spreading. <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Preventing the spread of impetigo<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To prevent the spread of impetigo and protect other people from infection, it is important to follow some basic hygiene measures:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Regular hand washing<\/strong> with soap and water.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Avoiding sharing personal items<\/strong> , such as <strong>towels<\/strong> , <strong>clothes<\/strong> , <strong>bedding<\/strong> , and other personal items.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Covering wounds<\/strong> with plasters or sterile bandages to prevent contact with infected skin.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Avoiding contact<\/strong> with infected people until they are completely recovered.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">When to seek medical attention?<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you notice symptoms of impetigo, such as red sores, blisters, or itching, it is recommended that you consult a doctor. Your doctor can confirm the diagnosis and prescribe appropriate treatment. This will help prevent the infection from spreading to others and possible complications such as <strong>cellulitis<\/strong> or <strong>sepsis<\/strong> .  <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Conclusion<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Impetigo is a common and highly contagious skin infection that is usually easily curable if treated promptly. By following basic hygiene measures, such as regular hand washing and avoiding sharing personal items, and starting treatment early, we can effectively control this infection and prevent its spread.   <\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__list is-grid columns-3 wp-block-latest-posts\"><li><div class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__featured-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.galex.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Galex-blog-slike--150x150.webp\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" style=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.galex.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Galex-blog-slike--150x150.webp 150w, https:\/\/www.galex.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Galex-blog-slike--600x600.webp 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/div><a class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__post-title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.galex.si\/en\/nettle-a-natural-gift-of-forest-wisdom\/\">Nettle \u2013 a natural gift of forest wisdom<\/a><div class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__post-excerpt\">Stinging nettle (Urtica dioica) is an ancient medicinal plant rich in nutrients and antioxidants.
