Impetigo? For treatment think NHS pharmacy first! Think Eggintons!

A child with a rash/blisters/scabs around their mouth and nose may have impetigo - an unpleasant skin infection that's very contagious but not usually serious. Anyone can get it, but it's more common in young children. With treatment, it usually gets better in a few days.

Impetigo starts with red sores or blisters which quickly burst and often leave crusty, golden-brown patches. It commonly affects the face around the nose and mouth.

Please come in and see us if you think you or your child have impetigo. We can provide the same NHS consultation and treatment you would get from a GP, if you need it.

No appointment necessary. FREE treatment for all patients eligible for free NHS prescriptions.
A single NHS prescription charge applies otherwise.
Subject to medical suitability.
