    Impetago
    I had burned my forehead by removing my eyebrows with nair hair remover for sensitive skin. This was 10 days ago.
    With in the hour I was in my doctors office was given a cream for the burn ( about the size of a small pimple above my left eye, in the brow area)..
    When I got home I used both the pills and cream and within an hour my face burned all over and I had a slight rash. When I called the doctor she said because the rash was only on my face to replace the cream with hydrocortisone cream, she said it was a allergic reaction to what she gave me and not the pain meds.
    This was on a Friday. Dr not in on weekends. My face felt like it was on fire.monday dr tells me I have impetago.this is Saturday.have antibiotics, Cream. Some clearing some new sores. And moles are falling off my body.

    I don't know what your question is.

    Impetigo is highly contagious, a bacterial infection. It is NOT caused by an allergic reaction to anything.
