Collection: Impetigo
What is Impetigo?
Impetigo is a highly contagious bacterial skin infection that causes red sores, fluid-filled blisters, and yellowish crusts, typically appearing on the face, hands, and body. It is caused by Staphylococcus or Streptococcus bacteria and spreads easily through skin-to-skin contact, contaminated surfaces, or scratching the infected area.
Though common in children, impetigo can affect individuals of all ages.
Managing impetigo naturally involves supporting immune function, reducing bacterial overgrowth, and promoting skin healing to stop the infection from spreading and support recovery.
