My child started with a scab on his elbow that looked slightly infected but cleared up now on a few places on his body he’s come up with these spots/blisters , anyone have any idea what it is? I’ve tried the pharmacy but they was no use and no doctors open until Monday

Impetigo?

Oh yes it does look like impetigo. Get some antibiotic cream on it ASAP. If none now use tee tree oil and make sure you wash sheet etc. To stop it spreading.

We had it repeatedly and ended up having to wash the dc in hibiscrub to get rid of it for good.
