Impetigo or shingles?

[SassyCrab]

I usually suffer with frequent episodes of impetigo, however this time I feel like it hasn’t yet gone as yellow/crusty. I did put sudocrem as soon as I felt a tingle. It just doesn’t itch as much as what it usually does - can someone help as don’t want to use the wrong treatment as need it gone for next week as going on holiday!!!

I'd wipe the cream off, sudocreme isn't for impetigo or shingles and ask the pharmacist.

If you look on google antiseptic cream works just as well for impetigo than antibiotic cream so I have to disagree.

How do you feel? If it is shingles, you'd probably feel pretty ropy.

Looks like Impetigo.
