If impetigo is confirmed, it can usually be effectively treated with antibiotics, which may be prescribed in the form of a cream (topical antibiotics) or as tablets (oral antibiotics). If the infection is being caused by an underlying skin condition, such as eczema, this may also need to be treated.

Non-bullous impetigo is the more contagious form of the condition causing sores that burst leaving a yellow-brown crust.If the impetigo affects an otherwise healthy area of skin, it is called primary impetigo.Impetigo resulting from another skin condition is called secondary impetigo.on-bullous impetigo is the more contagious form of the condition causing sores that burst leaving a yellow-brown crust.
