Skin symptoms may need a closer look
Impetigo often causes sores or crusted patches, but several skin conditions can look similar in photographs or descriptions. The clinician needs to understand where the affected areas are, how quickly they developed, whether they are spreading and whether you feel unwell before considering any treatment pathway.
What to discuss with your clinician
- Prepare a symptom timeline and clear photographs if safe to take, noting spread, soreness, fever or other illness.
Arrange your assessment
Your consultation questions depend on the condition and your health history. A prescription is not guaranteed.
