Impetigo is a bacterial skin infection that requires appropriate medical management. At our private clinics in Montreal, Longueuil and Laval, our doctors offer consultations to diagnose and treat this condition, which particularly affects children. Prompt treatment prevents the spread of infection and ensures optimal healing.
Impetigo initially manifests itself as small red lesions that rapidly develop into fluid-filled vesicles. These vesicles burst and form characteristic yellowish crusts, particularly around the nose and mouth. The lesions may be accompanied by itching and gradually spread over the skin. In children, these manifestations often appear on the face, but can also affect other parts of the body.
If left untreated, impetigo can lead to a variety of complications. The infection can spread to other parts of the body and contaminate other people, as impetigo is highly contagious. In some cases, the infection can worsen and cause cellulitis, a deeper inflammation of the skin. Kidney complications, although rare, can occur if the infection is not properly treated with antibiotics.

Impetigo is caused mainly by two types of bacteria: staphylococcus aureus and streptococcus. These bacteria penetrate the skin through small cuts, scratches or insect bites. Hot, humid conditions favor their proliferation.
