He had it earlier in the year and had antibiotics.
Since starting back to school on sept he's been constantly unwell he's had 2 colds, sickness bug, ear infection..... I honestly can't keep on top of it. I don't know why it's been so tough for us :( he's 6.
Anyway, as the title says... notificed a scabby spot below his lip which appeared out of no Weber.. now noticed little red blemishes under his nose and I really suspect it's impetigo.
Should I be ringing 111 or wait for the go on Monday/see how it progresses?
It's obviously not an emergency but I would rather it didn't spread on the house and he didn't suffer much.

Ring 111. Better not risk impetigo, it can be nasty when left untreated.
