Hi, my son is five and was prescribed antibiotic cream for impetigo on Sunday. We've been applying it four times a day (as recommended). It hasn't spread (only a minor case of 3 small crusty spots anyway) but hasn't seemed to get better!
How long should it take? The out of hours doctor told me that I should take him to my GP for oral antibiotics if it doesn't get any better in a day or two..
